How You Will Create Value
As the Senior Environmental Scientist, you’ll take a lead role with environmental
compliance across air, water and waste for Intrepid’s largest worksite. This isn’t just a job
ticking compliance boxes, you will also help shape and advance environmental best
practices across the organization, as we continue to scale as an organization.
What You’ll Need to Be Successful?
• Demonstrated proficiency leading and advancing environmental initiatives in
dynamic environments.
• Ability to balance both strategy and “hands on” field execution. You must be
comfortable shifting between a climate-controlled office and rugged industrial field
locations, including processing facilities and construction sites.
• Working knowledge of the Clean Water Act, Clean Air Act, Resource Conversation
and Recovery Act, NEPA, MSHA, OSHA, and other applicable regulatory
requirements.
• Analytical thinking, attention to detail, and the ability to generate solutions using
sound judgement. Must be able to effectively gather, synthesize, analyze and
package/present environmental information to internal and external stakeholders.
• Demonstrated ability to inspire confidence and trust as a competent team player.
• Because time will be required in the field, you will be required to walk/stand for
longer periods of time, lift up 50 pounds occasionally, climb, etc. (physical activity)
Why Work for us?
• We impact lives for the better. Our efforts as a solution miner are essential for
agriculture, animal feed, and other industrial operations such as oil and gas.
• Our quality, agility, reliability, and speed differentiate us with customers. We act
with integrity and trust.
• We are financially healthy with strong revenue, cash flow, and no long-term debt.
• We have both a proud history and a compelling future, focused on sustainable and
superior operational excellence and customer service.

Friday off.
