This is an opportunity to work at the intersection of operations, data, and environmental impact within a global sustainability leader.

Why This Role Matters

At ERM, we partner with major clients to tackle some of the world’s most complex environmental and sustainability challenges. Delivering on that mission requires more than expertise—it depends on having the right equipment, in the right place, at the right time.

  • Financial literacy — confident reading, interpreting, and working with financial data, with the ability to support equipment revenue recognition, rental rate and cost-recovery models, invoicing, financial reporting, forecasting, revenue and cost trend analysis.

  • Driver's License Required: This position requires a valid driver's license and/or the ability to operate a company vehicle due to the nature of job duties, which include frequent travel to various client locations across a large geographical area.

  • Optimize equipment processes, identifying gaps and developing improved systems for management, tracking and reporting.

  • Provide equipment revenue data and forecasting insights to support operational planning and decision-making.
