We want our people to grow fast, so we regularly rotate our staff across projects to ensure the development of a diverse set of skills. Moreover, at Roux, you can expect to become involved in the “business” of consulting—client interaction, business development, operational management—much earlier than at other firms. Unlike the bigger firms, we do not “pigeon-hole” our people on one project for years on end.

We work on challenging projects for demanding clients who expect the best. This can require long hours in the field or the office. Consistently delivering quality products and services on time and on budget requires effort and innovation. To that end, you can expect to be challenged every day to achieve personal and team success, while having the support of competent professionals and managers invested in your growth and committed to seeing you succeed at Roux. It is tremendously rewarding to both advance your career and make a positive impact on the environment.

At Roux, you will advance as fast and as far as your performance warrants. We need smart, creative, hard-working people who take ownership in stewarding the firm. For these people, there are no limits on the pace or extent of their growth.

At Roux, exceptional performance is recognized and rewarded. We value the contributions our employees make to the success of the firm and reward them in a variety of ways, including competitive base salary, bonuses (we have provided performance bonuses to our staff every year for the last four decades), comprehensive benefits, stock options, and profit sharing—creating a compensation package that is highly competitive in the industry.

We highly value our employees and believe comradery and feeling like part of a team are keys to our success. We take pride in our company culture and intend to continue hiring and retaining people who share our same values. We encourage activities that promote inclusive social interaction and awareness between our employees and in the community through our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program. Roux has donated thousands of hours of volunteer time annually along with hundreds of thousands of dollars to charitable causes, and we’re proud to support active CSR programs in each of our offices.

Our success is built on a model where we predominantly recruit at the entry level and fill most of our senior positions by promoting from within. To achieve this development and to foster the continued development of staff at all levels, Roux encourages employees to commit to continuous education, self-improvement, and professional licensing. Ongoing opportunities for professional development are available through a combination of our mentoring program, in-house seminars, vendor presentations, e-learning classes, webinars, external training programs, participation in career-based organizations, attendance and presentation at professional conferences, preparation and publication of scientific papers, and professional certification sponsorship.

If you are a recent graduate who has worked hard to earn your degree, who is looking for a company with the resources and interest to invest in your career, you will find the environment at Roux to be welcoming, challenging, and very rewarding—a place where your talents and skills can thrive. Likewise, if you have already begun your career in environmental consulting and management, you will find a work environment that welcomes the different experiences and perspectives you can bring to Roux. From entry-level to upper management, our employees benefit from the variety of work and nimbleness that a private, midsized firm can provide.
