As part of the continued growth and innovation of our North American Corporate Sustainability & Climate Change (CS&CC) team, ERM has an opportunity for an experienced leader to join our global consulting firm as a Partner and become a true owner and shareholder in a business with sustainability at its heart.

We are looking for an established leader interested in being part of ERM’s thriving global community – outstanding professionals who combine strong consulting and business development skills with a strong technical foundation – to foster and expand a network of excellent client relationships across a variety of sectors.  We seek an individual to help us drive the continued growth of ERM’s business through selling and delivering world-class services, recruiting and developing our next generation of leaders, and further advancing our reputation for CS&CC solutions, coupled with value-creation programs based on the rapidly evolving Low Carbon Economy Transition (LCET).
