  • Conduct environmental due diligence for development and acquisition opportunities.
  • Maintain comprehensive knowledge of environmental policy, regulation and compliance that affect permitting and impacts on project siting and compliance.

Requirements
  • Experience and expertise interpreting federal and state environmental laws (ESA, NEPA, CWA), guidelines, and policies, and developing project strategies for compliance with the same.
  • 2-4 years in renewable energy or 5+ years in a similar industry with experience managing responsibilities similar to those listed above.
  • Must be self-directed and detail oriented, with the ability and desire to work effectively in a team environment.
  • Able to act and adapt to a fast-paced business environment with competing deadlines, and quickly learn and implement internal processes.
  • Strong attention to detail, assuring documents and communications are concise and accurate.
  • Ability to navigate ArcGIS and Google Earth to interpret environmental spatial data and identify potential project risks.
