Job description
RES is looking for a Restoration Manager with 5+ years of experience based out of our Buffalo NY office.
The mission: taking on 10-20 projects at the same time, you will manage upland and wetland restoration, and invasive species management projects, overseeing the projects from the beginning to end, including managing staff, schedules, and technical direction, and project QA/QC.

70% of the time, you will be in the office, supporting the projects, through adequate staffing and budgeting, reviewing and ordering project materials and CAPEX, submitting permits relevant to the projects, and updating projects in the system.
You will also review project opportunities and develop with estimating proposal team, and Client Solutions Manager, and interact with regulatory authorities, making sure their requirements are met.
