ERM is seeking a Principal Consultant, Environmental Impact Assessor with consulting experience and established client relationships to play a key role in growing our business in the Philadelphia, PA office. The ideal candidate will have established relationships with power and technology sector companies, along with technical expertise leading multi-media environmental permitting, NEPA, and large-scale capital projects in Mid-Atlantic and/or eastern states.

  • As a “seller/doer,” contribute to commercial growth of ERM’s global CPD service area. Identify and develop new opportunities, prepare effective technical and commercial proposals, and take an active leadership role in developing new business with new and existing clients. Develop and expand strong client relationships that generate repeat business.
  • Contribute to leadership and management of project execution activities in support of ERM clients’ projects. Lead consulting engagements in the areas of impact assessment, technical discipline-specific consulting, and/or permitting and compliance.
  • Contribute to preparing impact assessments and E associated management plans in compliance with NEPA and international standards, serving in roles ranging from lead technical expert to QA/QC and oversight. Achieve client’s expectations for scope, budget, schedule, and quality.
  • Provide business value based on a strong understanding of clients’ needs and raising the profile of ERM’s capabilities within key client organizations.
  • Lead, manage performance, hire and retain, inspire and mentor staff for overall success of technical team.
  • Meet business health & safety performance standards, financial targets, project budgets and schedules, client satisfaction/expectations, internal risk management, and contractual requirements.

REQUIREMENTS:

  • BS/MS in environmental studies, planning, geography, civil or environmental engineering, or related technical field; Professional certification desired. Or the equivalency of 8+ years related experience in lieu of education.
  • 8+ years (10+ years preferred) of consulting experience with impact assessment and multi-media permitting.
  • Proven track record in developing and implementing successful business growth strategies in permitting renewables and data/electrical transmission.
  • Demonstrated ability to develop and maintain long-term relationships with clients, and book personal sales in new CPD consulting services.
  • Established relationships with clients and potential partners (e.g., EPC companies) with buying centers in the Mid-Atlantic and Eastern states.
  • Well-developed teambuilding and influencing skills; unquestioned integrity; and the experience, confidence, and stature to effectively address client and business needs and challenges.
