ABOUT YOU

Are you passionate about the environment and ready to join an inclusive workplace, committed to leading new ideas and pathways, and to delivering value? If the answer is, "Yes!" then we have an exciting career opportunity for you.

Who are we? We are Montrose, a global environmental services provider offering environmental planning and permitting, measurement and analytical services, and environmental resiliency and sustainability solutions. Our qualified engineers, scientists, technicians, associates, and policy experts are proud of our collective expertise and the collaborative nature of our approach to helping clients. We strive to optimize environmental resiliency in a way that effectively complements our clients' decision-making and operations and efficiently fulfills their project requirements.

We have over 90 offices across the United States, Canada, Europe and Australia and are approaching 3500 employees - all ready to provide solutions for environmental needs.

The Environmental Engineering and Consulting team delivers solutions for complex environmental challenges using our regulatory expertise and implementing practical and cost-effective compliance management processes and programs. We address our clients' biggest concerns around permitting, ecoservices, assessment, and remediation.

Our highly trained and experienced engineers and scientists, environmental and remediation specialists, geologists, hydrogeologists, biologists, and environmental compliance specialists work with both public- and private-sector clients, delivering turnkey solutions.

A DAY IN THE LIFE

Our Environmental Project Manager - Remediation Geologist, Engineer or Scientist position is located in Colorado. This position will support our client, a very large oil/gas operator in the DJ Basin. We plan to hire multiple team members into this position type, and anticipate growing our team in support of this project. There will be an initial period where this position will work out of the client office in Greeley, CO (roughly the first 4 weeks). After that, this position will be hybrid-remote, with the expectation that there will be client site visits, and some in-office work weekly. For that reason, we are only considering candidates who are local to the area (or willing to relocate), and agreeable to this work arrangement. This work consists of managing large portfolio projects, is fast-paced, can be technical in nature, and interaction with regulators is required. This is certainly a "resume builder" opportunity, as the selected applicant will be managing a number of projects.

As a key member of the Environmental Consulting & Engineering team, this role will be responsible for a full range of activities including:

• Simultaneously manage full-life cycle of several small to large-scale oil & gas remediation projects, each at different phases.

• Maintain and support data collection, and database management in support of our clients and internal use.
• Coordinate and maintain efforts and oversee quality of work for our projects, project schedule, scope of work, budgets, and client relations associated with our clients.
• Prepare and complete project deliverables.
• Prepare operational permits and programs to ensure compliance with environmental and safety regulations and to control compliance costs.
• Ensure environmental compliance of field and lab data with regard to permits and regulatory standards.
• Keep up-to-date and current on industry trends by completing formal training, reviewing professional publications, and attending professional workshops.
• Practice safe work practices by following all Company safety rules and OSHA regulations, including attendance at all required safety training programs.
• Participate in continuous improvement programs and provide support to team efforts.
• The position may require travel and an occasional overnight stay.
