About Impact Environmental

At Impact Environmental, we put clients on solid ground — and the same goes for the people who work here. Since 1989, we've carried projects from initial site assessment through regulatory closure, which means our people learn the whole process, not one narrow slice of it. We're a multidisciplinary team of scientists, geologists, engineers, and field technicians, and we hire people who think critically and want to own their work. That means real field time, direct client contact, and mentorship at every step from senior professionals who've built their own careers here and are invested in yours.

The Role

We have an immediate opening for an Environmental Field Technician based in our Bohemia office. This is a field-first position: most of your week is on job sites across Long Island and the five boroughs, collecting samples, running air monitoring, and supporting investigation and remediation programs.

It is a strong entry point into environmental consulting for someone who wants to build real field competence and move up from there.

What You Will Do

• Perform field sampling of soil, soil vapor, and groundwater.
• Conduct air monitoring and provide field oversight during investigation and remediation activities.
• Support drilling, excavation, and remedial system activities on active sites.
• Document field conditions accurately and completely for use in technical reporting.
• Travel to project sites across Long Island and New York City. Company vehicles are available.
• Adapt to changing site conditions and client needs as project scopes evolve.

What You Bring

• Minimum of 2 years of relevant environmental field experience.
• Experience performing field sampling of soil, soil vapor, and groundwater.
• Team-oriented and safety-conscious, with good communication skills, a positive attitude, and a strong work ethic.
• Sound professional judgment, consistency, and attention to detail.
• Valid driver’s license and a driving record satisfactory under the company’s motor vehicle record policy.

Preferred, Not Required

• OSHA 40-Hour HAZWOPER training.
• OSHA 10-Hour or 30-Hour Construction Safety.
• Air monitoring experience on active construction or remediation sites.

Physical Requirements and Working Conditions

This is a field-based position. With or without reasonable accommodation, the role requires the ability to:

• Work outdoors in varying weather conditions and on active construction and remediation sites.
• Stand, walk, bend, kneel, and traverse uneven terrain for extended periods.
• Lift and carry field equipment and sample containers weighing up to 50 pounds.
• Wear required personal protective equipment, including respiratory protection where site conditions require it, subject to medical clearance and fit testing.
• Drive to and from project sites. Company vehicles are available for site travel.

Compensation and Benefits

$22.00 – $26.00 per hour. Placement within the range depends on relevant field experience and current certifications. These are non-exempt, hourly positions. Our field and project work is driven by site schedules, and overtime is paid in accordance with federal and state law. Field-intensive assignments regularly carry overtime, and it is a meaningful part of total annual earnings — something to factor in when comparing our posted hourly range against salaried roles elsewhere.

• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Employer-paid life insurance and long-term disability coverage
• Retirement plan with company match
• Flexible Spending Account and Dependent Care Account
• Paid time off and paid holidays
• Company vehicles available for field and site travel
• Employer-supported training, certification, and license renewal

Why Impact Environmental

We do not just hire employees, we invest in them. Technicians here get exposure to a wide range of site types and regulatory programs, and we pay for the training and certifications that turn field experience into a career.
