RES is looking for an Environmental Solutions Analyst.

As an Environmental Solutions Analyst at RES, you will play a key role in identifying and supporting the development of environmental markets across our mitigation, water quality, and endangered species solution lines. Working at the intersection of market research, data analytics, and environmental planning, your insights will help guide business development strategy and equip regional teams with actionable, data-driven intelligence.

This role is ideal for someone early in their career who brings a strong analytical mindset, an interest in environmental solutions, and a desire to make an impact through research and strategy.

What your day-to-day might look like:

You’ll begin your day reviewing project opportunities, researching environmental regulations, or analyzing market activity. You may be conducting suitability assessments, mapping potential restoration opportunities, or evaluating competitor activity. Throughout the week, you’ll support proposal preparation, build reports and dashboards using Excel, Power BI, or GIS, and attend meetings with regulatory stakeholders or consultants.

You’ll also translate your findings into white papers, market assessments, presentations, and internal deliverables that support regional sales and strategy teams in making informed decisions. This work is fast-paced, collaborative, and rooted in RES’s mission to restore and protect natural resources.
