About The Position
Clean Harbors in Spokane, Washington, is seeking an Environmental Field Chemist (CleanPack Chemist) to handle, segregate, pack, and inspect chemical waste in accordance with applicable regulations and company policies and procedures. This is a customer-facing, field-based position—not a laboratory-based chemist role. Work takes place indoors and outdoors at plants, laboratories, customer sites, and other facilities. Duties include assisting with lab packs at customer facilities, household hazardous waste collections, and laboratory moves. The territory covers Montana and neighboring cities, and travel to customer sites is required. Overnight travel occurs approximately two to three times per month; Clean Harbors provides hotel accommodations and $38 per day in per diem for travel expenses. The schedule is Monday through Friday, with occasional Saturdays. The start time is 7:00 a.m., and workdays typically last 10–14 hours depending on workload. The role requires attending a one-week out-of-state academy. Starting pay is $26–$28 per hour. After six months of employment, the employee must obtain a Class B CDL with hazmat and tanker endorsements; Clean Harbors sponsors CDL school. The position is described as an entry-level role offering training and opportunities for career growth. After approximately 18–36 months of successfully learning the position, employees may have the opportunity to move into a salaried management position. Clean Harbors also states that the role can lead to approximately 15 other roles and that employees may transfer internally among its more than 200 branch locations.

- Comfort with physical labor, hazardous-waste handling, long workdays, customer-site work, and occasional overnight travel.
Nice To Haves

- Previous experience in environmental services, such as remediation, abatement, or emergency spill response.
Responsibilities
