• Post-secondary education in Environmental Science, Environmental Engineering, or related field.
• 1–3 years of experience in environmental coordination, consulting, or regulatory compliance.
• Knowledge of Ontario and federal environmental legislation.
• Experience with or interest in ISO 14001 and EMS development.
• Strong communication skills and ability to work independently.
• Solid organizational skills, with the ability to oversee responsibilities across multiple sites.
