Requirements

What You Bring

  • Bachelor’s degree in Geology, Environmental Science, Hydrogeology, or related field.
  • Experience with environmental field work (internships, co-ops, or 1–3 years full-time experience preferred).
  • Skilled in using technical instruments (e.g., water level meters, PIDs, low-flow sampling equipment).
  • Familiarity with MS Office Suite; experience with CADD, Log Plot, Adobe, or Surfer is a plus.
  • Strong organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills.
  • Willingness to travel overnight within the Midwest and perform physically demanding field work (lifting up to 40 lbs, extended hours in varying conditions).
