Senior Environmental Project Manager - CEQA

Location: San Francisco Bay Area (Hybrid)

Sequence has been exclusively retained to identify a Senior-level Environmental Project Manager for one of the nation’s most respected, long-standing, multi-discipline environmental and planning consultancies supporting public- and private-sector clients throughout California and beyond.

Our client is a well-established firm with decades of history, a collaborative culture, and a deep bench of technical specialists. They are seeking a seasoned CEQA professional who can own projects end-to-end, lead teams, and serve as a trusted advisor to clients and agencies.

This is a true senior-level role – not a paper-pushing position. You’ll be hands-on where it matters, but also entrusted with responsibility, judgment, and autonomy.

What This Role Looks Like

You’ll work within a cross-disciplinary team of planners, biologists, air/noise specialists, and designers on a diverse portfolio of projects across California. The work spans CEQA/NEPA documentation and compliance, public infrastructure, utilities, parks and open space, residential and institutional development, and long-range planning efforts. Including working on efforts related to General Plans, Specific Plans and Park Master Plans.

This role blends technical excellence with project leadership:

• Leading and managing CEQA/NEPA documents from scoping through certification
• Independently drafting clear, defensible environmental analysis
• Managing scopes, schedules, budgets, and subconsultants
• Serving as a primary client contact and representing clients at meetings and hearings
• Coordinating with agencies and regulatory bodies
• Helping set the tone for quality, responsiveness, and accountability on projects

While some travel and occasional evening meetings are part of the work, the firm is intentional about sustainable workloads and flexibility, offering a hybrid schedule that supports both collaboration and balance.

Who Were Looking For

• Bachelor’s degree in environmental studies, planning, or a related field (Master’s a plus)
• Strong working knowledge of CEQA and NEPA
• Familiarity with California environmental laws and agencies (e.g., CEQA, NEPA, ESA/CESA, Clean Water Act; BAAQMD, CDFW, RWQCB, USACE, etc.)
• Prior experience managing public- and/or private-sector environmental projects
• Excellent technical writing and analytical skills
• Organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable managing multiple priorities
• Collaborative by nature, but confident working independently

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Stable, well-respected firm with a people-first culture
• Interesting, high-impact projects across California
• Hybrid work model with strong internal support
• Clear room for continued growth and leadership
• Competitive hourly compensation with overtime eligibility

This is an excellent opportunity to join an innovative and progressive organization. A place where a motivated self-starter interested in advancing their career would find a long-term home.

The position offers competitive compensation, bonuses, vehicle, and a very strong benefits package, including health/vision/dental insurance, holiday/vacation, performance bonuses, 401k with match, life insurance, disability insurance, wellness programs, etc. Progression and other profit opportunities would also be available.

The roles is ideally slated to be based in the Bay Area (East or South Bay) but could be flexibly structured throughout Northern California. It's structured with a Hybrid work schedule, home based with occasional travel to client locations. The organization would be open to helping assist with relocating of a capable professional into the area from another region of California (essentially anything of reason can be structured for the right individual).
