As a Portfolio Manager, you will work with a dynamic and growing team to support projects through all phases of the site evaluation and remediation life cycle. This role is an exciting opportunity for an ambitious individual seeking career growth in environmental consulting and the environmental remediation market.

In this full-time position, you will lead a team of technicians, professionals, and experts to execute work across multiple sites, managing environmental investigation, remediation, reclamation, and regulatory compliance efforts. You will collaborate closely with technical experts, regulators, and clients to address each site's unique characteristics and challenges. This role will focus on strategic advisory, leadership, and project execution.

This role offers the opportunity to develop and refine essential project and portfolio management skills within the environmental industry. At Arcadis, our dynamic work culture emphasizes collaboration, mentoring, and professional development at all levels-providing a foundation for career growth through expanded networks and opportunities.

Role accountabilities:

As a Portfolio Manager, you will bring exceptional attention to detail, strong written and verbal communication skills, the ability to work independently, and the capacity to excel as a productive leader of a high-performance team.

You will have a solid understanding of environmental investigation and remediation within the framework of Colorado State Oil and Gas and federal regulations.
