Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Program Manager Jobs at Brown and Caldwell Jobs
Frame your PMP credential for federal projects
Brown and Caldwell works heavily on federally funded infrastructure and environmental programs. A PMP or equivalent project management certification signals you can meet the compliance and reporting standards those contracts require, strengthening your candidacy before sponsorship even enters the conversation.
Target roles tied to environmental permitting work
Brown and Caldwell's Program Manager openings frequently involve water, wastewater, and remediation projects. Tailoring your resume to highlight permitting timelines, regulatory stakeholder coordination, or EPA-adjacent experience positions you as a fit for their most active hiring areas.
Search open Program Manager roles on Migrate Mate
Use Migrate Mate to filter Brown and Caldwell's Program Manager openings by visa type so you're applying to roles where sponsorship is already confirmed, rather than asking about it cold during the screening call.
Prepare for a multi-stage offer and filing timeline
H-1B petitions for consulting roles are cap-subject, so an offer in late fall may not translate to a start date until October 1 of the following fiscal year. Build that gap into your negotiation so both sides have realistic expectations before you sign.
Request LCA details before signing your offer letter
Brown and Caldwell must file a Labor Condition Application with the DOL before submitting your H-1B petition. Confirming the prevailing wage tier and work location on the LCA lets you verify the offer aligns with DOL-defined wage levels for Program Managers in your metro.

Does Brown and Caldwell sponsor H-1B visas for Program Managers?

Which visa types does Brown and Caldwell commonly use for Program Managers?
Brown and Caldwell sponsors H-1B visas for most permanent hires, and also works with F-1 OPT, F-1 CPT, TN, and J-1 classifications for candidates already in those categories. For long-term employees, the company has supported Green Card sponsorship through EB-2 and EB-3 PERM-based pathways, which is relevant for Program Managers looking beyond temporary work authorization.
What qualifications does Brown and Caldwell expect for Program Manager roles?
Most Program Manager postings at Brown and Caldwell require a bachelor's degree in engineering, environmental science, or a related field, along with substantial project or program management experience. A PMP certification is frequently listed as preferred.
