If you're a seasoned environmental or construction professional ready to own complex, high‑stakes work, this is your moment. At ERM, you won’t just manage projects—you’ll influence the future of remediation, demolition, and decommissioning across North America. Step into a role where your leadership ensures safety, precision, and impact at some of the most challenging industrial sites in the world.

Why This Role Matters

ERM is growing—and so is the demand for strategic, safety‑driven project leaders who can guide large‑scale demolition, decontamination, and decommissioning (DDD) and remediation efforts. As a Managing Consultant, Project Manager, you’ll play a critical role in shaping the success of complex environmental construction projects across oil & gas, pharmaceutical, manufacturing, and power sector sites. Your expertise will help clients reduce risk, meet compliance obligations, and restore sites responsibly.

What Your Impact Is

In this role, you’ll be the backbone of project delivery—translating technical plans into safe, successful field execution. You’ll lead contractors, manage schedules and budgets, solve on‑site challenges, and ensure every decision is guided by ERM’s commitment to health, safety, and technical excellence. Your impact will extend beyond the field as you collaborate with project managers, support client relationships, and contribute to business development activities.

Required

• Substantial experience as a construction supervisor or a BS in Engineering, Construction Management, or related field (2 years’ experience may substitute for 1 year of education).

• Act as a key liaison between field operations and Partner In Charge to ensure technical accuracy and project alignment.

• Support business development through proposal preparation, client meetings, and identifying upcoming project needs.

• Plan and schedule field teams, evaluate subcontractor performance, and negotiate/resolve change order requests.

• Lead pre‑construction meetings, manage field staff, conduct progress meetings, and oversee subcontractors and inspectors.
