Job description

Ecological Risk Specialist

Sovereign Consulting Inc. seeks a mid to upper-level Restoration Ecologist with 10+ years of ecological restoration experience in the Mid-Atlantic Region, and New England Region experience is a plus. This is a “doer-seller” position, with focus on coastal systems, including but not limited to nature-based restoration of tidal marsh, shorelines, tidal rivers and streams, and near shore reefs. Experience with stream restoration and freshwater systems is also beneficial.

Responsibilities:

  • Become one of Sovereign’s Ecological Restoration Leaders
  • Lead ecological restoration efforts
  • Preparation of bid/grant packages
  • Management of construction projects
  • Coordinate and work with project partners
  • Public speaking on ecological restoration science and projects
  • Direct oversight of junior staff working on ecological restoration projects
  • Mentoring staff on ecological restoration

Requirements:

    • Bachelor’s degree in ecological sciences, environmental toxicity, environmental engineering or related discipline, (Master’s degree is a plus).
    • Minimum 10 years of experience performing ecological restoration, site assessments, and permitting
    • Experience with wave transmission calculations and modeling is a plus
    • Experience with hybrid living shoreline and tidal marsh design
    • Experience with interpreting and applying tidal data to the restoration design
    • Experience with sediment transport mechanisms
    • Extensive knowledge of applicable State and Federal guidance, rules and regulations
    • Experience with conceptual, 30%, 60%, and 100% design development
    • Experience working with local, regional, and national agencies and NGOs
    • Experienced with public outreach, education, and involvement
    • Strong networking skills
    • Strong project development skills
    • Mixed employment background (e.g., private, NGO, Agency, other) can be a plus depending on positions held and durations of employment
    • Strong verbal and written communication skills, particularly with regard to writing technical reports and contributing to proposal preparation, project scoping, and project budget tracking
    • Although there is a focus on coastal systems, freshwater stream, fish passage, freshwater wetlands, and forest land restoration is a plus.
    • Master planning and project prioritization experience is a plus.

Employment at Sovereign is contingent upon the results of a Drug & Alcohol screening test. Candidates must present documentation that confirms identity and eligibility for employment in the United States.

Salary will be commensurate with experience. This full-time position offers an excellent benefits package including: group healthcare program, vision and dental coverage plan, life and AD&D insurance plans, short & long-term disability programs, other supplemental insurance programs, 401(k) retirement plan, tuition reimbursement program, paid holidays and paid vacation. A relocation package will not be offered for this position.
