Build a team. Shape what’s next. What if your next leadership move gave you the opportunity to do more than lead a team? At Bohler, our Branch Managers have a hand in shaping the business, the team, and the communities we help build. We’re looking for a strategic, entrepreneurial leader to take the helm of our Gaithersburg, MD office and help define what’s next for our growing presence across Suburban Maryland. This is a role for someone who enjoys being close to the business—building relationships, developing people, winning work, solving problems, and turning a cohesive team into an even stronger one. The Opportunity As Branch Manager, you’ll have the opportunity to influence the direction of the office while partnering closely with Regional and Firm Leadership. You’ll help set the strategy, grow the team, strengthen client relationships, and create the conditions for great work to happen. Bohler’s Gaithersburg team works on impactful land development projects, supporting the growth of residential, commercial, mixed-use communities throughout the region. We even work on high-impact Mission Critical projects. You’ll have the platform and support. We’re looking for the leader who wants to make the most of it. ## What You’ll Lead - Grow the business. Develop and execute strategies that expand the branch’s market presence and position Bohler for continued growth. - Build great leaders. Mentor and develop senior and mid-level professionals while creating a strong pipeline of future leaders. - Strengthen client partnerships. Build relationships with clients and industry partners, understand what matters to them, and turn those relationships into lasting opportunities. - Raise the bar on delivery. Champion quality, accountability, and operational excellence across the branch. - Run the business. Own branch financial performance, resource planning, staffing, and operational priorities. - Shape the culture. Create an environment where talented people want to do their best work, grow their careers, and stay for the journey. ## What You’ll Bring You’re an established land development leader who knows how to balance people, projects, clients, and the business. You have the credibility to lead experienced professionals and the business instincts to spot an opportunity and turn it into something bigger. You’ll bring: - Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Civil Engineering, Landscape Architecture, Surveying, or a related field—or equivalent experience. - 15+ years of land development and permitting experience across residential, commercial, and/or industrial sectors. - Professional licensure such as PE, LSA, or PLS preferred. - A track record of leading teams, managing financial performance, and delivering against key business objectives. - Strong business development skills and established relationships within the Suburban Maryland market. - The ability to develop people, influence clients, and bring teams together around a common goal. - The confidence to lead strategically while staying connected to the people and work that drive the business. Ready to Make Your Mark? If you're already successful in your current role, we understand why you might not be looking. But if you're interested in having more influence, more autonomy, more support, and a bigger hand in shaping a market and developing the people around you, this could be the opportunity worth exploring. Lead the team. Grow the business. Shape what’s next. Join Bohler and empower what’s next. ## About Bohler ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Bohler is a land development consulting and site design firm that helps real estate professionals navigate complex projects from concept through completion. - **Entity Type**: Private (bootstrapped/self-funded, no venture capital funding rounds publicly disclosed) - **Headquarters**: Warren, New Jersey, USA - **Founded**: 1980 (40+ years in business) - **Founders**: Not publicly available ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: Civil Engineering / Land Development Consulting - **Target customers**: Developers, owners, and real estate professionals (B2B, primarily enterprise and mid-market) - **Mission or purpose statement**: “We empower the ambitious to become the accomplished.” The company helps clients identify and act on opportunities to move projects forward faster. ## Products & Services - **Land Development Consulting**: Full-service site design, entitlement, and permitting support for commercial, residential, and mixed-use projects. - **Site Design & Civil Engineering**: Grading, drainage, stormwater management, utility design, and roadway engineering. - **Entitlement & Permitting**: Navigating local zoning, regulatory approvals, and agency coordination. - **Surveying**: Boundary, topographic, and ALTA/NSPS land title surveys. - **Construction Phase Services**: Bid assistance, construction observation, and project closeout support. ## Market Standing - **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed (private, no funding rounds) - **Key Metric**: 900+ employees across 35+ offices - **Notable Investors/Partners**: Not publicly available (no external investors) - **Growth Signals**: - Expanded to 35+ offices across the United States - 900+ employees (consistent with steady, organic growth over 40+ years) - Active in multiple real estate sectors (commercial, residential, industrial) - Strong employer brand with structured development programs (Rise, THRIVE, Coaching) ## Competitive Advantages - **Deep expertise**: 40+ years of experience in land development, giving the firm a vast repository of technical knowledge and municipal relationships. - **The Bohler Way**: A defined culture and set of operating principles that emphasize meticulous attention to detail, innovative efficiency, and dedicated service. - **National footprint with local presence**: 35+ offices allow the firm to serve clients across the U.S. while maintaining deep local market knowledge. - **Employee investment**: Structured development programs (Rise, THRIVE, coaching, performance management training) create a pipeline of technical and leadership talent. - **Comprehensive service offering**: From initial feasibility through construction closeout, Bohler provides end-to-end site development services. ## Strategic Focus - **Talent development**: Continued investment in employee growth through the Rise program, THRIVE leadership development, and coaching. - **Geographic expansion**: Growing office network to serve more markets and clients. - **Technology adoption**: Investing in advanced design and project management tools to improve efficiency and quality. - **Diversity & inclusion**: Building an inclusive culture through Employee Resource Groups (Asian Professional, Black Professional, LatinX, Pride, Women’s Professional Network). - **Community impact**: STEM education initiatives and community revitalization projects through the “Bohler Cares” program. ## Why Work Here - **Culture**: “The Bohler Way” defines values and actions, emphasizing ambition, quality, growth, and accomplishment.
