NORTH KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI, March 8, 2022 – Jim has joined McClure’s Development Team as a Senior Project Manager.

Schuessler was there 14 years as he grew a landscape architecture and planning studio from three people to 20. In 2016, he joined CFS Engineers as their only engineer providing landscape and planning leadership.

I wanted to work for a firm that was actively looking at strategic growth opportunities, where stagnation was not an option. I wanted to work with a team of landscape architects that were creative and supported the firm’s leadership goals including building relationships. I saw all of these in McClure, and I wanted to be part of the upward trajectory of the firm.”
