  • Strong commitment to health and safety in both field and office environments.
  • Effective written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to document and interpret technical data.
  • Proficiency with spreadsheets, databases, and data analysis tools.
  • Detail‑oriented mindset with strong troubleshooting and problem‑solving skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities, work independently with minimal supervision, and adapt to changing project needs.
  • Willingness and ability to travel as project demands require.

  • Familiarity with wetlands, stormwater, NPDES, and wastewater permitting and reporting.
  • Local or regional knowledge of Minnesota and surrounding regulatory environments.

Key Responsibilities

  • Provide technical support on environmental impact assessments and sustainability‑related projects.
  • Prepare plans, permits, and reports related to wetlands, stormwater, NPDES, and wastewater programs.
  • Conduct environmental compliance assessments and support implementation of corrective actions to meet federal, state, and local regulations.
  • Perform fieldwork, including ecological field studies and site assessments.
  • Deliver general environmental compliance support, including on‑site client assistance as needed.
  • Compile, evaluate, and interpret environmental data; contribute to high‑quality technical report preparation.
  • Execute project tasks within scope, budget, and schedule expectations while meeting ERM’s quality standards.
  • Collaborate with Partners‑in‑Charge and Project Managers to deliver exceptional client value and project outcomes.

For the Consultant, Scientist position, the anticipated annual base pay is $72,600–$97,500 (USD).

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
