All that we're missing is you. Join us today
Our values
Diversity, inclusivity, engagement-these are the values that help us foster a strong sense of community within Covanta. By embracing the unique talents, perspectives, and experiences of our employees, we cultivate an environment that embraces teamwork, encourages open dialogue, and provides opportunities for growth.
About the role
Located in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Covanta Tulsa is an award-winning Waste-to-Energy Facility that serves the Tulsa area with reliable and sustainable waste management.
In addition to keeping waste out of landfills, we are committed to ensuring safe operations and minimizing environmental impacts. We have been consistently recognized for exceptional operations and community involvement, including the National Safety Council's Occupational Excellence Award.
About the Opportunity
This position will primarily be a "hands-on" position that involves the waste approval process, the testing protocol of inbound waste materials, and managing the facility's compliance with its environmental permits and related environmental regulations. The position will be on-site, with little to no travel required.
Preparation and submission of environmental compliance reports and requirements per permits and regulations to regulatory agencies. Assistance with permit application modifications to the facility's existing permits and new permit applications as the site expands and adds additional processes to meet the needs of its customers.
This position is multi-faceted and involves working with on-site Covanta employees, off-site Covanta sales and customer service personnel, Covanta environmental teams, as well as Covanta customers and Oklahoma regulators. Strong written and oral communication skills are required. This position will report to the site Facility Manager with continued communication to the Regional Environmental Director.
A degree in environmental sciences, chemistry, or a related discipline is required. If not a degreed chemist, a strong knowledge of chemistry is needed to assist in allowing the facility to process a variety of non-hazardous industrial wastes (NHIW), which includes safely blending materials together.
In addition to the day-to-day operations of waste approvals and waste receipts, this position requires the ability to work with health and safety managers to complete documents as well as write and implement standard operating procedures (SOPs) related to EHS/management of onsite wastes. Also, it requires the ability to prepare outbound waste profiles for NHIW material that cannot be managed onsite and needs to be profiled to an alternate 3rd party waste disposal facility.
