Senior Sustainability Consulting Manager Announcement

Published 04-10-08

Submitted by ERS Global

April 10, 2008 - Global warming. Carbon footprint. Alternative energy sources. Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth. Green. Sustainability. Environmental topics dominate the news and there is strong momentum world-wide for elevating the stewardship of our planet to new heights. In this country, it is no longer sufficient merely to comply with regulatory requirements. Private enterprise is boldly leading the way. Companies like Wal-Mart are setting audacious goals for a sustainable planet by requiring, for example, that their vendors eliminate waste in production processes as a condition of doing business. So vendor executives are clamoring to become "green" in substance, and they are seeking guidance on what to do and how to transform themselves. This has become an essential strategic business issue in Board Rooms and "C-suites."

Are you a professional consultant with experience in sustainability consulting and a passion for improving the environment? Do you have a solid track record of leading consulting teams in successful client engagements? If so, ERS Global wants you to join our team.

ERS Global, an Atlanta-based, woman-owned company with an outstanding reputation, is a pioneer in the field of corporate environmental sustainability consulting and is in great demand. For over a decade, we've worked with leading companies committed to a more sustainable path. We collaborate with our clients to plan what they need to do, how to do it, then work with them to achieve lasting, measurable solutions for a sustainable world.

The right candidate will be a professional consulting engagement manager with a track record of leading teams to deliver outstanding client value. We prefer direct experience in environmental sustainability, but we will consider an excellent consulting manager with a passion for the environment, who has worked in other disciplines.

The ideal candidate will possess:

  • A track record in leading teams of consultants and client personnel in achieving desired results in planning and implementing engagements

  • Experience working with "C-suite" executives

  • Excellent oral and written communication skills including experience in writing and/or coordinating the production of "deliverables" and winning proposals

  • Superior analytical skills with an orientation toward pragmatic, implementable solutions

  • Consistency and accuracy in scoping projects

  • Presentation and facilitation skills

  • Experience in leading a multi-disciplinary project team including other project managers, subject matter experts and client personnel

  • Experience in delivering projects on time and on budget

  • Experience in successfully coaching and mentoring of other team members

  • Subject matter expertise for guiding more junior staff members and providing expertise in corporate sustainability topics

  • A commitment to developing tools and methods for repeatable, quality delivery

  • Success in managing client relationships and in achieving follow-on engagements

  • An advanced degree in natural resource management, business administration and/or engineering

  • Commitment to excellence and achieving client value.

    We want qualified candidates to join our team and help lead the world-wide sustainability transformation.
