Brief Company Overview:

Environmental Compliance Services, Inc., (ECS) is an aggressive market leader of business and environmental solutions. This dynamic firm is comprised of more than 200 professionals with offices and affiliates throughout the Northeast, Southeast and Midwest. ECS has been described as a professional engineering, geological, and environmental and scientific services provider but we define ourselves as much more than that. We are a medium-size consulting company on the verge of substantial growth within the industry possessing the one thing most companies our size and larger have moved away from: the appreciation for, and loyalty to, our personnel and team members. Employee satisfaction includes input from many sources, but the experienced consultant has identified the need and seeks to work within a company which exhibits loyalty and appreciation of personal effort for all team members. Income standards of course must be met, but added value is represented by addressing the intangible yet highly valued benefit of being able to work within a close-knit, motivated, team-oriented program which prizes loyalty. In that regard, ECS is a rare find. This is a great time to become a team member in a fast-growing, technically excellent, successful program that appreciates and rewards the contribution of each and every member!
