Environmental Permitting Project Manager

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings using

for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections that have real specific content. The posting includes: description (overview), responsibilities, qualifications (required and preferred), maybe about WSP (company info). Benefits: mention "comprehensive suite of benefits including medical, dental, vision, disability, life, and retirement savings". That's specific enough to include Benefits section. Pay: not mentioned. Schedule: not mentioned (maybe travel 15-20% but not schedule). So we should not create Pay or Schedule sections. We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. The page already shows it, so we don't add heading for job title. We need to use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. The posting includes EEO statement at end: "WSP USA (and all of its U.S. companies) is an Equal Opportunity Employer...". That's boilerplate; remove. Also "NOTICE TO THIRD PARTY AGENCIES:" etc. Remove. Also "Are you ready to get started?" maybe considered call to action; but it's not a list; we could keep as prose? Might be considered application instruction? It's a prompt but not instruction to apply. Safer to keep? The instruction says remove application instructions. "Are you ready to get started?" is not an instruction but a motivational line; could keep as prose. However it's near the end before EEO. Might be considered fluff but not boilerplate. I'd keep it as a paragraph. We need to structure sections: maybe "About the role" (overview), "Responsibilities", "Requirements" (maybe combine required qualifications), "Qualifications" (preferred?), "Benefits". Could also have "Skills" but we can embed within qualifications. We must not create empty sections. Let's extract content. Overview: "This Opportunity WSP is seeking an Environmental Permitting Project Manager to support our Natural Resources and Environmental Planning practice across Texas, Louisiana and Oklahoma. This role will focus on managing the permitting strategy, environmental compliance, natural resource assessments, and regulatory coordination for a variety of projects within the energy, oil & gas, utilities, transportation, industrial, and infrastructure sectors. The selected candidate will manage permitting and environmental planning projects, working closely with subject matter experts, biologists, environmental planners, engineers, and regulatory specialists. Projects may involve federal, state, and local permitting, natural resource assessments, wetland and waters evaluations, threatened and endangered species coordination, mitigation planning, and environmental compliance support throughout project lifecycles. We are seeking a candidate who brings strong technical expertise, regulatory knowledge, project management capabilities, and a solutions-oriented mindset to help deliver successful projects while contributing to the continued growth of WSP's Earth and Environment practice throughout the Gulf Coast region." That's overview. Then "Your Impact" bullet list (actually sentences). We'll treat as Responsibilities. List of responsibilities: - Support and lead environmental permitting and natural resource projects throughout Texas, Louisiana and Oklahoma. - Develop permitting strategies and regulatory pathways for infrastructure, energy, utility, transportation, and industrial projects. - Prepare and review permit applications, technical reports, environmental assessments, and supporting documentation. - Develop staffing plans and manage multidisciplinary teams, teaming partners, and subcontractors to meet project requirements and client commitments. - Coordinate with federal, state, and local regulatory agencies to facilitate project approvals. - Plan, coordinate, and provide technical oversight for wetland delineations, habitat assessments, threatened and endangered species evaluations, and other natural resource studies. - Provide clients with environmental compliance and permitting guidance throughout project development and implementation. - Develop project scopes, schedules, budgets, and proposals. - Manage multiple projects while ensuring quality deliverables are completed on time and within budget. - Analyze and interpret environmental data and provide technical review and quality assurance. - Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to support environmental reviews, permit applications, mitigation plans, and resource management strategies. - Mentor and support the professional development of junior environmental staff. - Build and maintain strong client relationships and support business development initiatives; help convert successful project delivery into repeat business. - Promote a strong safety culture and maintain compliance with WSP health and safety standards. - Exercise sound and ethical decision-making in accordance with WSP policies and procedures. - Perform additional responsibilities as required by business needs. - Manage project financial performance, including forecasting, invoicing, change management, risk identification and corrective actions needed to achieve scope, schedule, budget, quality and profitability goals. That's responsibilities. Then "Who You Are" includes Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. Required Qualifications: - Bachelor's degree in Biology, Environmental Science, Natural Resources, Environmental Planning, Ecology, Geography, or a related field. - Minimum of 7 years of experience in natural resources, environmental permitting, environmental consulting, or a related field. - Experience supporting projects in Texas, Louisiana and/or Oklahoma. - Strong understanding of environmental permitting processes and regulatory frameworks, including NEPA, Clean Water Act Sections 404 and 401, Endangered Species Act, and related state regulations. - Experience coordinating with agencies such as USACE, USFWS, NOAA, EPA, and state natural resource agencies. - Knowledge of wetland permitting, habitat assessments, ecological surveys, mitigation planning, and environmental compliance requirements. - Demonstrated project management experience, including scope development, budget management, and client communication. - Strong technical writing and communication skills with experience preparing reports, permit applications, and presentations. - Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a multidisciplinary consulting environment. - Proven commitment to workplace safety and quality project delivery. - Ability to travel 15-20% including occasional overnight travel for client meetings, agency coordination, and project initiation. Preferred Qualifications: - Master's degree in Environmental Science, Biology, Ecology, Natural Resource Management, Environmental Planning, or related field. - Previous project management experience in the environmental field. - Experience managing multidisciplinary environmental and permitting projects. - Experience with large-scale energy, utility, transportation, coastal restoration, or infrastructure projects. - Established relationships with regulatory agencies and clients throughout Texas, Louisiana and Oklahoma. - Experience mentoring and developing junior staff. - Project Management Professional (PMP) certification or similar credential is a plus. Then "About WSP" includes description of company and benefits. About WSP: - WSP USA is the U.S. operating company of WSP, one of the world's leading engineering and professional services firms. - Dedicated to serving local communities, we are engineers, planners, technical experts, strategic advisors and construction management professionals. - WSP USA designs lasting solutions in the buildings, transportation, energy, water and environment markets. - With more than 15,000 employees in over 300 offices across the U.S., we partner with our clients to help communities prosper. - www.wsp.com - WSP provides a flexible and agile workplace model while meeting client needs. - Employees are also afforded a comprehensive suite of benefits including medical, dental, vision, disability, life, and retirement savings focused on providing health and financial stability throughout the employee’s career. - At WSP, we want to give our employees the challenges they seek to grow their careers and knowledge base. - Your daily contributions to your team will be essential in meeting client objectives, goals and challenges. - Are you ready to get started? We need to remove boilerplate like EEO etc. Already removed. We need to decide sections: About the role (overview), Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe required qualifications), Qualifications (preferred), Benefits (from About WSP). Could also have "About the company" but not required heading list includes About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can use About the role for overview. Responsibilities as list. Requirements for required qualifications. Qualifications for preferred qualifications. Benefits for benefits. Skills maybe not needed; we could omit. We must not create empty sections. Now produce HTML fragment. We'll wrap each section in

  heading then content. For lists, use

  • . For prose, use

    . We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all bullet points exactly as given, maybe rephrase? We should keep the wording. We must not repeat job title as heading. Let's craft. Section About the role: combine overview paragraphs into maybe one or two

    . We'll keep as

    with the overview text. Section Responsibilities:

    with each responsibility as
    • . Section Requirements:
      with required qualifications. Section Qualifications:
      with preferred qualifications. Section Benefits:

      with benefits description plus maybe other About WSP info? The benefits section should include the benefits description; we could also include other About WSP info as prose but not required heading. However we must preserve all substantive information; we cannot drop the About WSP description besides benefits. If we only put benefits, we lose other company description. The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." So we need to keep all substantive info from About WSP, not just benefits. But we cannot create a heading for "About the company" because not in allowed headings list? The allowed headings list includes About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. It does not include "About the company". However we could incorporate the About WSP info into the Benefits section as prose, but that would mix non-benefit info with benefits. The instruction says "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text". It doesn't forbid adding extra content under a heading that is not strictly matching the heading's typical meaning, as long as we have real content. So we could put all About WSP content under Benefits heading, even though it includes more than benefits. But that might be misleading. Better to create a section "About the role" for overview, and maybe we could add another section "About the company" but not in allowed list. The instruction says use

      for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). The "e.g." suggests those are examples, not an exhaustive list? It says "use

      for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." Likely they expect only those headings. So we should stick to those. Then we need to fit all content under those headings. We have overview (About the role). Responsibilities. Requirements (required qualifications). Qualifications (preferred). Benefits (benefits plus maybe other company info). That covers all. Thus we will put the About WSP description (including flexible workplace, benefits, etc.) under Benefits heading. We'll keep it as prose (

      ) maybe with a list for benefits. We need to ensure we don't create filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. Now produce HTML. Let's write:
