Additional information
Interdisciplinary Opportunities
Ramboll is a company where you will work with many different scientific and engineering disciplines.
Some efforts you may be involved with or asked to perform may include analyzing environmental field data to support fate and transport and extent and magnitude of contamination determinations for the evaluation of site closure options.
This also may include developing clean-up goals for contaminated sites using federal and state environmental regulations; assisting in the preparation and editing of technical reports; oversight of field projects and management of subcontractors, collecting environmental and/or residential/institutional samples during soil boring and monitor well installation, remedial excavation, and underground storage tank removals.
Investigation projects require planning of monitoring well placement, construction, development, sampling, and investigation-derived waste characterization and management for disposal.
ESG/Sustainability also plays a role in our due diligence of company and property transactions that can include developing framework understanding of sustainable operations and relationships.
Climate risk and resiliency modeling, assessment of weather-related impacts, and supply chain vulnerability are disciplines our clients depend on Ramboll to provide.
Wetland and stream assessment is inherently involved with property development in many areas and knowledge of the NEPA regulatory framework along with field characterization is an area many of our professionals are involved with.
These wetland field assessments sometimes lead to preparing jurisdictional determinations, preparing NEPA permits, and obtaining mitigation banking credits for our clients.
