  • Lead environmental investigation and remediation projects from start to finish, including Phase I/II ESAs and remedial design/implementation
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for clients, owning communication, timelines, and deliverables
  • Prepare and review key regulatory submittals (RAWP, SMP, work plans, closure reports)
  • Oversee field activities including soil, groundwater, and vapor investigations, as well as construction/remediation oversight
  • Manage project financials (budgeting, forecasting, invoicing) to keep work on track and profitable
  • Coordinate with subcontractors, field teams, and internal staff across multiple concurrent projects
  • Support proposals and help drive continued growth of the practice

Requirements

  • Balanced work environment with a mix of office, field, and hybrid flexibility
  • Tight-knit culture focused on collaboration, mentorship, and long-term relationships

Work Environment & Flexibility

  • Exposure to diverse NYC remediation and development projects
