GIS Analyst - ( 2400021B )

Description

Many of the world’s top engineers and scientists come together in our Water business because they view a community’s interaction with water a bit differently—as a single holistic system, rather than unconnected networks divided by jurisdictional boundaries. Working throughout the hydrologic cycle, we are delivering sustainable solutions to make sure water is where it should be and available when needed. Our experts guide our work with scientific rigor, an innovative spirit, and a vision for growth. Every day, we help communities improve, reuse, and protect this precious resource for future generations. By 2025 we’re hiring 2,000 people (like you) to join our team. Grow with us, H2O+U.

Here at Stantec we are pushing the boundaries of innovation, and we are now pursuing a highly motivated and technically capable GIS Analyst to join our Geospatial Discipline within the Water Delivery business unit. We collaborate closely with our colleagues and clients to meet the challenges they face within the water resources and related industries, including energy, transportation, risk assessment, environmental management, sustainability, and resiliency.

The selected candidate can be based at one of the Stantec offices across the Southern U.S., and we offer flexible work arrangements (e.g., in-office, hybrid, virtual). Preference would be one of the following locations: Louisville, KY, Lexington, KY, or San Antonio, TX.

• Produce concise, clear, and compelling cartographic output, both dynamic and static, with a keen eye for aesthetics.
