What are the responsibilities and job description for the Environmental Remediation Geologist Professional (hybrid) position at Jacobs?
At Jacobs, we're challenging today to reinvent tomorrow by solving the world's most critical problems for thriving cities, resilient environments, mission-critical outcomes, operational advancement, scientific discovery and cutting-edge manufacturing, turning abstract ideas into realities that transform the world for good.
Your impact
When it comes to the most challenging environmental issues facing our communities today, we’re focused on developing and delivering the most innovative solutions to improve our tomorrow. We’re looking for an Environmental Geologist to continue their career at Jacobs – where we’ll empower you to learn and grow in the delivery of environmental site characterization and remediation projects for government and global private-sector clients – to make our world better.
Based out of Conshohocken, PA, you’ll work with other geologists, engineers, subject matter experts, and project managers on exciting projects in which you will learn from others and pass along your knowledge. Responsibilities may include designing, performing, or overseeing soil, soil vapor, groundwater, and surface water investigations; building teams of colleagues and subcontractors; coordinating and managing fieldwork logistics; data analysis and interpretation; technical report writing; and participating in meetings with clients and regulators.
Safety will be your priority as you contribute to operational excellence and maintain the highest standards of Health, Safety, and Environmental Compliance in everything you do.
Estimated time spent doing field work is approximately 75% to 90%, with some of that being out-of-town travel. Over time (approximately 2 to 4 years), fieldwork and travel will decrease with increasing office work.
At Jacobs, we’re partnering across the globe to create the best project outcomes by maximizing the design, digital technology, and support capabilities of our Global Integrated Delivery (GID) teammates. By joining Jacobs, you’ll commit to supporting and engaging with these teams as we work to build a company like no other.
This is a hybrid position where you’ll be afforded the flexibility to work from both the office as well as from home as best suited to meet project delivery goals while maintaining balance.
We value collaboration and believe that in-person interactions are crucial for both our culture and client delivery. We empower employees with our hybrid working policy, allowing them to split their work week between Jacobs offices/projects and remote locations enabling them to deliver their best work.
