Floyd|Snider is looking to add a Project Geologist with GIS experience to our collaborative team. We're looking for someone who exemplifies our commitment to technical excellence, environmental responsibility, and customer service.

The primary role is to execute and communicate key field and analytical activities for environmental investigation and remediation projects in support of client goals. You'll use your knowledge of environmental geoscience for a range of activities on projects for municipal, port, state, and private clients. The role also provides opportunity to use your knowledge of spatial analysis to contribute to a team of GIS professionals, preparing high quality data visualization figures and maps, and supporting other GIS analyses.

Here's our list of must-haves:

• 3 - 7 years of applicable work experience
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in geology or applicable scientific discipline
• Maintain Geologist-in-Training (GIT) and working toward Licensed Geologist (LG) or Licensed Hydrogeologist (LHG)
• Professional field work experience, specifically with drilling oversight and contaminated soil, sediment, and groundwater
• Acquire and maintain any certifications or licenses required for completion of job tasks (e.g.; HAZWOPER, CPR, TWIC, CESCL)
• Able to lift 30 lbs, push or pull 50 lbs, and use fine motor skills
• Able to perform significant walking, standing, and bending during field work
• Valid driver's license

Pay and Benefits

This is a full-time, permanent position. Geologists with 3 - 5 years of experience earn $80K - $90K annually and will have the title of Staff Environmental Geologist.

We offer quarterly merit-based bonus opportunities, equity and ownership options, 401K, medical insurance, vision insurance, dental insurance, long-term disability insurance, and life insurance.

Project work may sometimes require you to work more than your standard billable work week, but Floyd|Snider provides extra time off to recognize this effort. Regional travel is a small part of this role. You won't typically go more than 3 hours away, and we'll cover your expenses.
