Job description

On-Call Project Archaeologist (Remote)

Southeast Region (GA, SC, NC, TN, or vicinity)

About On-Call Employment with ICF

Given the seasonal or project-specific nature of our environmental work, ICF often hires environmental professionals as "On-Call" employees. On-Call employees are scheduled for work hours as they become available (we usually schedule work hours a few weeks ahead of time), and each on-call employee is free to accept or refuse the hours assigned to them in a given week. On-Call employees may work concurrent projects outside of their ICF assignment (as long as their outside work does not create a conflict of interest with the work they do for ICF).

ICF is currently seeking an On-Call Project Archaeologist to support the growth of our cultural resources practice in the Eastern U.S., especially on energy, transportation, and federal sector projects in the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic. Applicants living throughout that region are encouraged to apply.

Technical duties will include conducting background research, field survey, laboratory analysis, and eligibility evaluation and documenting the results in technical reports suitable for agency and SHPO consultation. You will also combine your archaeology technical skills with regulatory compliance expertise to support project-level analysis and programmatic solutions for NEPA and Section 106 compliance (and state compliance, as applicable). The Project Archaeologist will work closely with our Senior Archaeologists and Historic Preservation Specialists on project work, with opportunities to direct and mentor early career team members.

  • Contribute to technical expertise in archaeology, including technical approach development, analysis and documentation, and collaboration with junior and senior technical colleagues.
  • Write and produce technical reports or documents.
  • Evaluate resources for the National Register of Historic Places. Develop resource management recommendations and assess project effects on resources.
  • Collaborate with architectural and landscape historians toward an integrated multi-disciplinary approach to cultural resources management.
  • Collaborate in an integrated team with engineers, scientists, planners, regulators, and other stakeholders.

What You Must Have (Minimum quals)
