Environmental Scientist
Environmental Scientist – Position Overview

Position Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Ecology, Biology, Environmental Science, Civil / Environmental Engineering, or similar.
- 2-4 years of experience with wetland delineations.
- 2-4 years of experience with soil investigations for storm water and septic design.
- 2-4 years of experience in environmental / land use permitting.
- Experience in performing various routine field activities involving data collection, sampling, and identification of vegetation, soils, water resources, and wildlife.
- Ability to work independently or as a team in the field.

Physical Demands / Work Environment Conditions
This position involves working in the field independently or as part of a team at project sites, including undeveloped properties (fields and woodlands) and developed properties (construction sites and residential, commercial, industrial, and public properties). The field work includes investigating and mapping streams, wetlands, vegetation, soils, and wildlife habitats to help determine if a site is suitable for development and to help identify environmental constraints and permitting needs. These field activities require the ability to drive to different project sites and walk / navigate in various terrains, in adverse weather conditions, and occasionally for extended or irregular hours. The field work involves the use of hand-held sampling equipment and tools, which requires the ability to routinely lift and carry objects, stand, walk, reach, bend, squat, kneel, and twist. Office work is primarily stationary / sedentary using a computer and keyboard / mouse requiring repetitive hand movements.
