New York, United States City of New York Full time

The NYC Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) enriches the environment and protects public health for all New Yorkers by providing 1.1 billion gallons of high-quality drinking water, managing wastewater and storm water, and reducing air, noise, and hazardous materials pollution. DEP is the largest combined municipal water and wastewater utility in the country, with nearly 6, employees. DEP's water supply system is comprised of 19 reservoirs and 3 controlled lakes throughout the system’s 2, square mile watershed that extends miles north and west of the City.

The Bureau of Engineering Design & Construction (BEDC) currently has a portfolio of capital projects valued at $23.8B, and another $10.5B projected over the next 10-year commitment plan. The projects BEDC implements allows DEP as a whole to continue to operate and maintain an exemplary water supply system.

The Environmental Health & Safety (EHS) Division’s responsibility is to support, monitor and ensure that BEDC is in compliance with Federal, State and local EHS laws and regulations. In addition, BEDC’s goal is to run the safest, most environmentally compliant capital construction program in the United States; zero accidents, zero harm to people, and zero harm to the environment. The EHS group provides EHS support to the life cycle of projects including, but not limited to; reviewing designs and participating in the preliminary design and design workshops; providing comments on the EHS contract requirements; reviewing and making recommendations for EHS awards; and providing EHS field support from preconstruction through turnover. In addition, the EHS group regularly updates their EHS Management System (MS) through an EHS MS Audit program that results in continuous improvement items.

BEDC seeks to hire an Associate Project Manager 1 to serve as a Program Specialist for the Environmental Health & Safety (EHS) directorate with locations upstate in either Valhalla, NY or Kingston, NY. Under general direction of the EHS Program Manager, the selected candidate will oversee the EHS Training Program for project delivery of the Bureau’s Capital Projects. The selected candidate will be responsible for the EHS Training of all construction personnel including contractors and consultants to assure all personnel operate within the Environmental Health & Safety regulations for the city and state on construction sites. The selected candidate will be responsible for providing technical support and management reports relating to environmental health and safety to BEDC project management staff, as required by applicable laws, regulations, and Agency/Bureau policies, programs, and requirements. S/he will work with project management personnel to ensure projects are compliant with all Agency and Bureau EHS policies and procedures. S/he will provide support to other EHS staff members on various programs including Auditing, Prevention through Design, Inspections, and assist with special projects such as BEDC EHS communications and Newsletters. S/he will manage the Bureau’s training modules and related documents, including preparing, updating, and maintaining training courses and content based on the Bureau’s EHS training objectives and goals. S/he may also conduct pre-occupancy EHS inspections of facilities with our client Bureaus. S/he may be required to travel to project sites, field offices, and other DEP facilities, as necessary, to provide support and training to BEDC project management staff. S/he will manage updating key EHS documents and program elements as laws and regulations are revised by Federal, State, and Local agencies. S/he will maintain all related documents, including training records, and provide reports to senior leadership as required.
