  • Implement climate change initiatives, including public disclosure and verification
  • Support MACT compliance programs and deliver actionable recommendations
  • Ensure quality standards across multiple projects within scope, budget, and schedule
  • Foster strong client relationships and collaborate with ERM's national network of experts
