To continue building our team of professionals, MJW is seeking conscientious and reliable natural sciences graduates with an interest in expanding their educational background to include all aspects of environmental site investigation involving radioactive materials.
The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work alongside experienced professionals in health physics, regulatory compliance, radiological engineering, site remediation and environmental sciences in a small team setting. Candidates will support MJW project managers and clients in solving complex radiological site assessment and compliance projects that include an equal mix of field and office activities. It is expected that the successful candidate will take initiative in learning unfamiliar subject matter and in utilizing coworkers and managers as mentors to grow their expertise and knowledge of health physics, regulations, and related radiological or environmental sciences.
Reporting and data assessment skills using MS Office software tools will be emphasized and required. Mapping, statistical analysis, and graphics software will also be used.
Training will be provided, and promotional opportunities are available for candidates that demonstrate a willingness to grow, take advantage of the resources and opportunities available, and that participate in maintaining MJW’s reputation for excellence and professionalism.
