Ideally, we are looking for someone with experience in construction oversight as well.

Why This Role Matters

The U.S. energy system is undergoing the most significant transformation in decades.

ERM delivers more than $250M in powerrelated projects annually, and we are expanding our leadership bench to meet the accelerating need for new transmission infrastructure.

This role sits squarely at the center of that transformation.

  • Lead major renewables and transmission projects from concept to construction.

  • Shape regulatory strategies and secure CPCNs and other state-level approvals.

  • Expand ERM's market presence in the Midwest and Northeast.

  • Drive innovation and thought leadership in transmission siting and permitting.

  • Build and deepen strategic client relationships that fuel long-term growth.

What You Bring

Required

  • BA/BS/MS in environmental science, engineering, or a related field.

  • 15+ years of experience in environmental permitting, siting and routing, or stakeholder engagement, or construction oversight of energy infrastructure developments.

  • Established relationships with utilities, developers, and power-sector leaders.

  • Experience securing environmental and regulatory approvals for major infrastructure projects, including state, federal, provincial, or local permitting processes

  • Leadership experience guiding large capital projects.

  • Strong business acumen with a track record of multi-million-dollar delivery.

  • Demonstrated ability to mentor and lead cross-functional teams.

Preferred

  • Experience in the upper Midwest or Northeast markets.

  • Familiarity with renewable integration, grid modernization, or interconnection strategy.

  • Prior equity or leadership experience within a consulting environment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Grow and manage a portfolio of energy sector clients aligned with ERM's strategy.

  • Deliver high-value consulting services across routing, permitting, environmental assessments, and compliance.

  • Ensure project excellence on safety, quality, financials, and regulatory outcomes.

  • Contribute to ERM's North America leadership agenda.

  • Drive business development and create long-term client partnerships.

Why ERM?

As a Partner, you'll gain:

  • Equity ownership with significant financial upside.

  • A seat at the table to influence ERM's strategic direction.

  • A platform to amplify your voice as a thought leader in the power sector.

  • Access to a global network of experts and resources to scale your impact.
