Worley Consulting's Environmental & Sustainability help clients manage environmental liabilities, restore impacted sites, and deliver responsible environmental outcomes across the full asset lifecycle. Our team combines technical excellence, practical field expertise, and innovative thinking to solve complex environmental challenges while supporting regulatory compliance, risk management, and long-term sustainability objectives.

Purpose of the Role

As a Senior Environmental Scientist / Engineer / Technologist, you will play a key role in leading contaminated site assessment and remediation programs across Alberta. This role blends hands‑on field leadership with technical expertise, mentoring, and project delivery support.

This opportunity is well suited to experienced environmental professionals who are ready to take on broader leadership responsibility while continuing to apply strong technical judgment in the field. It is a great opportunity to be a leader in the field and with the project team, with clear career progression within Worley’s Liability Management and Restoration (LMR) practice.

This role supports a variety of environmental projects across the Cold Lake region and offers the opportunity to work on meaningful projects with a strong and collaborative team.
