Job description

Are you ready to build a career where every day brings new challenges, hands-on learning, and meaningful environmental work? Provost & Pritchard is seeking a motivated Field Technician to join our Environmental team.

You will spend most of your time in the field collecting samples, supporting drilling and well installations, and collaborating with engineers, scientists, contractors, and clients. You will also build technical skills through data analysis, reporting, mapping, and project coordination.

If you enjoy working outdoors, solving problems, learning by doing, and contributing to work that matters, we’d like to hear from you.

What You’ll Do:

  • Collect soil, soil vapor, indoor air, groundwater, surface water, and other environmental samples.
  • Conduct aquifer and pump testing, drilling oversight, and soil logging in support of monitoring well projects, including monitoring well installation, development, purging, and sampling.
  • Maintain clear, accurate field notes, sampling logs, forms, and project documentation.
  • Coordinate with drillers, surveyors, equipment operators, laboratories, landowners, regulatory agencies, subcontractors, and clients.
  • Assist with environmental investigations at contaminated or hazardous sites, including inspections, data collection, and technical support.
  • Organize data for reports, spreadsheets, databases, maps, graphs, and cross sections.
  • Support permitting and regulatory compliance activities, including work involving California Well Standards and agencies such as Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) and Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC).
  • Help coordinate subconsultants, requests for proposals, schedules, and field activities.
  • Contribute to projects that meet established scopes, schedules, budgets, quality standards, and safety requirements.


Qualifications:

  • A high school diploma or GED is required; an Associate or Bachelor’s degree in geology, engineering, environmental science, or a related field is preferred.
  • Interest in environmental investigation, remediation, and field-based work.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • The ability to prepare accurate field documentation and technical records.
  • Working knowledge of Microsoft Excel and comfort learning databases and other technical software.
  • A detail-oriented, dependable approach and the ability to work both independently and as part of a team.
  • Sound judgment, professionalism, and a commitment to safety.

Certifications:

  • OSHA 40-Hour HAZWOPER certification is preferred but not required.


What to Expect

This is an active, hands-on position with approximately 70% fieldwork and 30% office-based support. You will work outdoors in changing weather conditions and may travel or work early mornings, evenings, weekends, or extended hours depending on project needs.


Candidates must be able to lift and move up to 50 pounds and perform field activities that may involve standing, walking, stooping, kneeling, crouching, crawling, working near water, and wearing Level D personal protective equipment.
