Overview
Civil & Environmental Consultants, Inc. (CEC) continues to grow and expand. We have an excellent opportunity for an Environmental Assistant Project Manager/Project Manager I to augment our established Environmental Practice in our Pittsburgh, PA Headquarters office.

In this role, you'll collaborate with multidisciplinary teams of engineers, scientists, and technical specialists while building client relationships and managing project scopes, schedules, and budgets. As your experience grows, you'll take on increasing technical, client-facing, and leadership responsibilities, providing a clear path for professional growth and long-term career advancement. You will also have the opportunity to be cross trained to complete construction progress monitoring inspections for financial lender clients as part of lending policy requirements. Periodic regional travel will be required.

We also understand the importance of reaching beyond the office and giving back to the community—CEC employees volunteer for trail workdays to enhance local parks, maintain a CEC-designed pollinator garden for our office campus, and organize an annual charity golf tournament. At CEC Pittsburgh, we pride ourselves on fostering a culture of connection, collaboration, and growth within the office and in our community.
