Job Description

Do you have solid experience with soil and groundwater contamination? Are you motivated to lead complex and cross-disciplinary environmental projects that create value for both customers and society? And would you like to help develop professional excellence and sustainable advisory in a nationwide department?

At Ramboll we are seeking a senior project manager/senior adviser who will combine strong professional expertise with project management, client advisory, and business development.

About the job

As a senior project manager/senior adviser you will have a central professional and commercial role in Ramboll's nationwide department for soil, groundwater and building contamination. The department consists of about 65 skilled colleagues with diverse professional backgrounds, including engineers, biologists, geologists and technicians.

We work broadly with soil management, contamination investigations, risk assessments, monitoring, remediation of soil contamination, development projects, selective demolition and building contamination. We also offer Environmental Due Diligence cases, including environmental assessments in connection with purchase and sale of properties.

Projects range from remediation programs and method development to complex contamination cases with significant societal impact. We work, among other things, with environmental technical preliminary investigations prior to large urban development projects, cleanups and risk assessments regarding pesticides, chlorinated solvents, landfill gas and PFAS.

There is also an opportunity to work with strategic sustainable soil management across Ramboll and collaborate with Envidans water specialists. In the field of building contamination we work with some of the country’s larger environmental mapping and demolition projects.

• Contributing to bid work, client relationships and business development.
• Contributing to professional development, knowledge sharing and quality assurance across the organization.
• Identifying opportunities for innovative solutions and sustainable soil management.

• Have solid experience with advisory services in environmental projects and soil and groundwater contamination.
• Have experience with contamination investigations, risk assessments, monitoring and remediation solutions.
