Assistant to Associate Scientist
About The Position
We are currently seeking an assistant or associate geologist or environmental scientist for our Investigation and Remediation business area. This is a hybrid-based position working from our Moorestown, New Jersey, office, at least 2–3 days a week and will involve field projects in other states with the potential for overnight or extended stays. The position will support multiple clients and projects, with the common theme of site characterization and remediation.

Career growth at Integral offers future opportunities to manage tasks and projects, communicate with clients, and present your work at conferences.

This position may offer in-office or hybrid opportunities based on the candidate’s location and the needs of the organization.
