We have openings in our Langley (Vancouver) office for enthusiastic junior environmental professionals with an environmentally related science degree (including environmental science, earth science, natural science, ecology, or other), or an engineering degree such as civil, geotechnical, geological, or other related disciplines. This competition is open to students who will graduate this spring, and to candidates who have already graduated.
As part of our geo-environmental team in Langley, training will begin in the field, working under the direction of more experienced project managers and field staff to coordinate and implement various aspects of site investigation and remediation projects. The more experience you have, the less time you will spend in the field. As the training program progresses and experience is gained, you will be expected to coordinate and implement field work independently, supervise contractors in the field, and assist project managers in the preparation of reports. This experience will lead toward becoming a project manager, responsible for project design and implementation, directing more junior staff in the field, budget planning and control, report preparation, and client liaison.
Successful candidates will possess the following attributes:
Strong communication skills;
Self-motivation;
Proven ability as a team player; and
Commitment to quality client service.
