As an Project Environmental Scientist, the types of projects will cover brownfields, redevelopment, utility, institutional, and other similar work. You will cover Phase I, II and III environmental site assessments, remediation planning and oversight, and data interpretation and reporting. You will prepare technical deliverables, data analysis, regulation review and comparison, site assessment reports, remedial action plans, business development efforts, and other reports. You will also help mentor and guide entry-level staff and take on project management tasks where appropriate.

As a Project Environmental Scientist, you should have over five years of environmental consulting experience with progressively increasing responsibility. Your undergraduate program should be in Geology, Hydrogeology, Environmental Science, Engineering, or related fields. You should have experience with all phases of environmental site assessments and remediation projects, and an understanding of the Massachusetts Contingency Plan (MCP).
