Job DescriptionJob Description

MacKay Sposito is seeking a mid to senior-level Environmental Scientist to join our team. This role is ideal for someone who loves balancing the built and natural environments, enjoys a variety of project types and locations, and also understands the true meaning of client service.

When you see the words “we’re just like family” in a job posting, do you run for the hills? We get it. But rest assured, when we say “family” at MacKay Sposito, we don’t mean your weird uncle. Think of us as your cool cousins: the ones you play ping pong and darts with at every reunion or actually look forward to meeting for happy hour. Because we like to do all that stuff, too (And don’t even get us started on cornhole tournaments or Chili Dog Day). Yes, we’re serious about our work – but we’re serious about fun, too. If that sounds good to you, let’s talk. Because life is too short to dread Mondays.

Our Environmental Science and Permitting group lives by our core values of honesty, dedication, and relationships. We make decisions every day based on these values, which drive us to do the right thing even when it’s hard. Our vision is to work with cool people on cool projects, and we want people on our team who will add to the realization of our goals.
