If you're a senior environmental professional looking for meaningful work, more autonomy, and the opportunity to mentor a capable team, we’d love to hear from you.

You’ll take on a central role in technical oversight, project delivery, and internal mentorship. Key responsibilities include:

- Reviewing historical environmental reports and technical submissions

- Interpreting soil and groundwater chemistry data, including spatial analysis and contouring using Surfer software

- Developing and reviewing site investigation and remediation plans

- Reviewing and editing risk-based Phase II and III ESA reports

- Supporting regulatory submissions through Alberta’s OneStop platform

- Collaborating with field staff and junior professionals

- Contributing to project management and risk-based decision making

What You Bring

- 10+ years of experience in contaminated site assessment and/or environmental risk assessment

- A Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in environmental science, hydrogeology, toxicology, or a related field

- Registration with one of Alberta’s six regulated professional organizations (e.g. P.Biol., P.Geo., P.Ag., etc.)

- The ideal candidate would be trained, certified, and have experience using the Subsoil Salinity Tool (SST) for Tier 2 site assessments

- Demonstrated ability to interpret and visualize subsurface data using Surfer (e.g. contouring groundwater elevations, salinity mapping)

- Strong writing, communication, and critical thinking skills

- Proficiency with Microsoft Office and comfort working with environmental chemistry datasets

- A collaborative and solutions-focused mindset

Why EBM?

We specialize in risk-based environmental site management for oil and gas sites across Alberta with a particular focus on Tier 2 assessments, regulatory strategy, and site closure. If you bring experience with the SST, you’ll be stepping into a role where that expertise is highly valued and frequently applied. We support our team with internal mentorship and cross-training in Alberta’s evolving regulatory framework, including:

- Tier 2 Exclusion and Modification Protocols

- The SST — for salinity delineation, Tier 2 guideline development, and remediation performance assessment

- The Native Prairie Protocol (NPP)

At EBM, you’ll be part of a close-knit team that prioritizes technical quality, efficiency, and practical solutions, with opportunities to help shape both projects and company direction.
