We are headquartered in Rochester, NY with offices across New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, North and South Carolina, and Madrid, Spain. LaBella is a multi-disciplined architectural and engineering firm dedicated to client satisfaction through teamwork, respect, and trust. We provide services that take a project from start to finish—from an initial study to determine a project’s feasibility to construction administration and start up, and everything in between.

Job Overview:

An interest, understanding, or prior experience with mold and other environmental hazards is a plus.  The ideal candidate will enjoy a mix of office and field time.  LaBella offers excellent training and career advancement opportunities.

Frequent travel may be required using rental vehicle, company vehicle, or personal vehicle. This travel may include overnight stays at public accommodations and related establishments. Job duties may require exposure to weather and temperature extremes, loud noises, heights (climbing ladders, scaffolding, etc.) and other work-safety hazards (chemicals, fumes, etc.) at a construction site. Must be able to pass annual physical examination to confirm ability to wear a respirator. Must be available to occasionally work a modified work schedule or extended workday hours, as necessary.

Requirements

  • Associates or BS in a Science, Engineering or Construction related field.
  • 2+ years of environmental and/or construction experience.
  • Current NYSDOL and USEPA (Project Monitor/Air Technician, Inspector, Assessor, etc.) certifications preferred.
  • High interest in learning other environmental job duties.  LaBella will provide required training.
