Site Management & Field Supervision

Lead daily field operations for remediation, demolition, excavation, cap placement, trenching, and site restoration activities. Supervise union and non-union equipment operators, laborers, teamsters, drillers, and subcontractors on active project sites. Coordinate work sequencing, equipment use, contractor activities, and daily production goals to maintain schedule and quality. Drive strict adherence to work plans, construction specifications, and environmental/radiological controls.

Environmental & Technical Field Oversight

Oversee pump-and-treat system operations, including monitoring, troubleshooting, maintenance, and performance optimization.

Oversee radiological surveys, environmental sampling, excavation limits, and decontamination activities in coordination with project health physics staff. Support waste handling, packaging, and disposal logistics, including compliance with regulatory requirements and disposal site criteria. Monitor field conditions, contamination controls, dust suppression, stormwater BMPs, and equipment decontamination zones.

Health & Safety Leadership

Serve as the on-site safety lead, enforcing AECOM safety policies and project-specific Health and Safety Plans.
