• About Us
• Coleman Company, Inc. has opened up a new office in Brunswick, GA, and we are seeking a growth-oriented and entrepreneurial Civil Project Manager / Engineer to establish our Residential Land Development presence in the Golden Isles.

The ideal candidate is a confident communicator, proactive problem solver, and collaborative leader who is comfortable in Civil 3D one day and in front of a client the next. Experience with coastal Georgia permitting is a strong plus, as is a desire to mentor the staff we hire around you.
