  • Manage projects from planning through closeout

  • Oversee budgets, schedules, crews, and subcontractors

  • Ensure compliance with environmental regulations and specifications

  • Read and interpret plans, contracts, and technical documents

  • Prepare RFIs and submittals

  • Coordinate with municipalities, inspectors, contractors, and internal staff

  • Maintain high standards of safety, quality, and productivity
Qualifications

Required:

  • 5+ years of experience in environmental restoration, landscaping, horticulture, or arboriculture

  • Experience overseeing field operations

  • Ability to identify native trees and shrubs

  • Valid driver’s license

Preferred:
