The ideal candidate has a proven ability to manage multidisciplinary teams, oversee technically rigorous work, and serve as a trusted advisor to public- and private-sector clients. This individual will play a key role in expanding EA’s CERCLA, mining and remediation practices and presence within the Central and Western United States.
