Environmental Project Manager
Description
You've built your environmental experience. Now put it somewhere you can make an impact.
Terracon is growing in Sioux Falls, and we are looking for an experienced Environmental Project Manager with 5+ years of experience who is ready for greater ownership, stronger client connections, and the opportunity to help shape our growing environmental practice.
You will lead meaningful projects, build trusted relationships, collaborate with talented professionals across Terracon, and make a visible impact in the Sioux Falls market.
Why This Opportunity Is Different
Help grow something.
You won’t simply step into an established seat. You’ll have an opportunity to help grow our environmental presence in Sioux Falls and influence what comes next.
Local relationships. National resources.
Build relationships and serve clients locally while tapping into technical expertise and project resources from across Terracon.
Variety in your work.
The environmental practice can span site assessments, site investigations, risk and remediation, permitting, stormwater, environmental planning, and other environmental services.
Room to grow.
At the Project Manager level, Terracon’s career path emphasizes project leadership, mentoring, client relationships, and continued development toward larger and more complex projects.
Employee ownership.
The earlier environmental PM posting specifically highlighted Terracon as an employee-owned organization where employees can help set the company’s course and benefit from its financial success.
The Person Who Will Thrive Here
You probably enjoy being the person clients call when they have a complicated problem.
You can move comfortably between a project site, a client conversation, a technical report, and a project budget. You like working independently, but you also recognize the value of having a much larger team of specialists behind you.
Most importantly, you want the chance to build relationships, develop others, grow a practice, and have a real impact on the success of an office.
If that sounds like you, we’d love to start a conversation.
Bring your experience. Help us build what's next.
