ERM is a 8,000-person sustainability consultancy operating across 40 countries with deep expertise in environmental compliance, energy transition, and risk mitigation. The hiring mix skews heavily toward field and technical roles (engineering, construction, research) over corporate functions, and the tech stack—ArcGIS, Python, Databricks, Survey123, Apache Airflow—reflects a consulting firm increasingly automating fieldwork and building data pipelines for compliance and impact assessment at scale. Active adoption of Dynamics 365 and RAG suggests investment in CRM modernization and AI-driven document processing for permitting and due-diligence workflows.
