Job Description

Description:

Founded in 2010, Terraphase Engineering is a dynamic, privately owned environmental consulting firm seeking a Principal Environmental Compliance Consultant (Scientist, Geologist, or Engineer) with 16+ years of professional experience to help grow and support our Compliance Services Division, one of Terraphase’s four core Service Areas—alongside Environmental, Site Engineering, and Water Resources. The Compliance Division offers significant career growth as one of our fastest growing service areas and is central to Terraphase’s long-term growth strategy, with dedicated resources and leadership focused on expanding our reach and capabilities.

This is a senior leadership opportunity for a proven seller–doer—a consultant who combines deep technical expertise with a strong record of cultivating and sustaining client relationships while delivering practical compliance solutions.

At Terraphase, you’ll enjoy the personal attention and entrepreneurial culture of a small-to-mid-sized firm (fewer than 200 people), backed by the technical depth, multidisciplinary resources, and geographic reach of a company with offices across the U.S. You’ll have the platform to shape strategy, mentor emerging talent, and deliver tailored, high-value service to clients in a variety of industries—all while contributing to the continued growth of our compliance practice through your network and technical expertise. Our compliance professionals help clients meet critical environmental and safety standards, contributing to healthier communities and sustainable operations.

The Role

  • Maintain comprehensive knowledge of federal, state, and local environmental regulations (CWA, RCRA, CAA, EPCRA, etc.).
  • Lead large-scale and multi-state compliance programs.
  • Serve as a trusted advisor to clients, guiding regulatory negotiations and agency interactions.
  • Manage diverse projects—compliance audits, gap analyses, discharge monitoring, tank programs, litigation support, and permitting efforts.
  • Develop proposals, scopes, budgets, and schedules while ensuring client satisfaction and profitability.
  • Lead teams for responses to small and large RFPs/SOQs
  • Oversee and mentor a team of consultants, scientists, and engineers, while managing subcontractors and vendors.
  • Provide quality assurance and technical reviews of deliverables, including reports, plans, and specifications.
  • Support project bidding, contract solicitation, and business development opportunities.
  • Collaborate across disciplines to deliver innovative, cost-effective compliance solutions.
  • Expand Terraphase’s compliance practice and help shape its long-term growth strategy.

Who You Are

  • 16+ years of consulting experience with a focus on environmental compliance.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Geology, Environmental Science, or related discipline.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead compliance programs and manage client portfolios.
  • Recognized expertise in federal and multi-state regulatory frameworks.
  • Strong record of client development and relationship management.
  • Skilled at mentoring and leading multidisciplinary teams.

Preferred Skills

  • Professional licensure such as CHMM or proven leadership in subject matter areas (Hazardous Waste, Stormwater, Air)
  • Experience using many government platforms such as US EPA CDX, CERS, RCRAInfo / myRCRAid, TRI-MEweb, ECHO, E-Plan, and similar compliance systems.
  • Familiarity with or leading teams utilizing tools such as ArcGIS, Power BI and AutoCAD.

Benefits
