Job description

Grounded in safety, quality, and ethics, our experts lead their fields with dedication, a creative spirit, and a vision for growth. We draw from more than 20 technical specialties worldwide and are devoted to fostering a community of diverse talents, backgrounds, and expertise. Here, you can apply your passion and collaborate with top environmental professionals on work that's vital to our clients and the communities they serve.
Your Opportunity
Join a team that's naturally committed to the environment.
We are seeking an exceptionally talented and enthusiastic individual with a keen interest in the natural sciences to join our team as a full-time, mid-to-senior level lead wetland scientist in the Overland Park (Kansas City), Kansas or St. Louis, Missouri office. The ideal candidate will have strong expertise in wetland delineation, plant identification, soil characterization, and ecological fieldwork in the Midwest. This role involves up to 60% travel, data collection, and reporting related to wetland assessments and other biological surveys. The candidate will work closely with project managers, senior scientists, and staff scientists with development, coordination, and delivery of environmental permitting, assessment, or compliance documents for projects involving wind and solar electric generation facilities, electric transmission lines, natural gas pipelines, and private development projects to fulfill federal, state, and local agency requirements.
Your Key Responsibilities
  • Delineate wetlands and other water resources in accordance with the US Army Corps of Engineers Manual and the applicable Regional Supplements.
  • Perform independent field studies including botanical surveys, natural community mapping, wildlife habitat assessments, and ecological impact assessments.
  • Support project planning and task management for field assignments.
  • Assist with the preparation and review of technical documents, such as wetland and waterbody delineation reports, threatened and endangered species habitat assessments, environmental assessments, environmental impact statements, permit applications and other technical reports.
  • Assist Project Managers/Senior Scientists by contributing technical expertise during client/regulatory meetings and proposal development.
  • Prepare and manage data, reports, and tables for client and agency submission.
  • Utilize GPS and ArcGIS Field Maps/Survey123 for data collection and mapping.
  • Other technical duties may include ecological restoration planning and assessment.
  • May also assist with other duties as assigned, including biological surveys.

Your Capabilities and Credentials
The ideal candidate will demonstrate strong leadership abilities with experience both leading teams and contributing as a collaborative team member. They should possess exceptional oral and written communication skills, as well as strong analytical and creative problem-solving abilities. The role also requires excellent organizational and note-taking skills, along with the ability to work independently and make sound, timely decisions in the field without direct supervision. Travel will be expected - primarily throughout the Midwest, but also within the broader U.S., and should not be assumed to be local.
Education and Experience
Required:
  • Bachelor's degree in environmental science, ecology, botany, soil science, or a related field.
  • 5-10 years of relevant field experience in wetland delineation and environmental assessments.
  • Knowledge of local/regional vegetation and soils.
  • Valid driver's license required.

Preferred:
  • Master's degree in environmental science, ecology, botany, soil science, or a related field.
  • Experience with and proficiency in data entry using ArcGIS tools (FieldMaps and Survey123).
  • Wetland Professional in Training or Professional Wetland Scientist Certification.
  • Familiarity with state and federal environmental permitting processes.
  • Ability to travel extensively and work outdoors in variable weather conditions.
  • Task or project management experience.

Typical office environment working with computers and remaining sedentary for long periods of time. Field work may include exposure to the elements including inclement weather.
