Full Job Description

About the opportunity:

SWCA Environmental Consultants is seeking an Assistant or Associate Project Ecologist to support our Natural Resources team in the Southeast, with a preference for candidates based in Mississippi or Georgia, and openness to Alabama and Tennessee. The ideal candidate will have strong experience in wetland delineations, permitting, and aquatic resource assessments across the southeastern United States.

This role involves a mix of fieldwork, regulatory coordination, and technical reporting to support ecological projects, with a focus on wetland delineations and Clean Water Act permitting.

This is a full-time position that offers a flexible work arrangement, including hybrid options. Occasional travel for fieldwork may be required across different ecoregions in the Southeast, including overnight stays.

This position is available at the following levels, depending on qualifications and experience:

Assistant Project Ecologist – Typically requires a minimum of three years of relevant industry experience and expertise
Associate Project Ecologist – Typically requires a minimum of five years of relevant industry experience and expertise

What you will accomplish:

Coordinate with regulatory agencies such as USACE, EPA, and state agencies.
Collect, analyze, and interpret environmental data using GIS tools.
Take responsibility for team safety, develop safety plans (when applicable), and anticipate potential safety hazards.
Prepare delineation reports, permit applications, and technical documentation. Depending upon project, an element of your job may be to independently supervise a small crew while conducting environmental fieldwork. This includes:
- independently assigning and directing the activities of others on behalf of SWCA, often in remote areas without immediate guidance from senior managers, to ensure quality and on-time delivery;
- ensuring that employees understand their responsibilities and delegated tasks and being held accountable if crew members under your supervision are not performing their activities correctly, productively, and safely;
- serving as a conduit of communication between employees and senior managers, including communicating issues to relevant senior managers;
- receiving and resolving complaints from employees in the field; and monitoring team productivity and offering timely performance guidance, including determining when corrective action is needed and delivering appropriate feedback

Experience and qualifications for success:

Required Qualifications:

Bachelor’s degree in Environmental Science, Ecology, Soil Science, or related field.
3+ years of experience in wetland delineations and environmental consulting.
Experience applying USACE delineation methodology and regional supplements.
Familiarity with Clean Water Act permitting processes.
Strong knowledge of southeastern hydrology, soils, and vegetation.
Proficiency with GIS tools (ArcGIS, ArcPro).
Ability to work in field conditions (wetlands, streams, remote areas).
Valid driver’s license.

Preferred Qualifications:

5+ years of delineation and permitting experience.
Professional Wetland Scientist (PWS) or ability to obtain.
Qualified Hydrologic Professional (QHP) certification.
Experience leading Section 404/401 permitting efforts.
Experience coordinating directly with USACE districts in MS, GA, AL, or TN.
Strong technical writing and report preparation skills.
