Founded in 1981 by ecologist Dr. Steven W. Carothers, SWCA Environmental Consultants is now an employee-owned company of natural and cultural resource specialists, environmental planners, and technical specialists. We specialize in environmental regulatory compliance, natural and cultural resource management,  sustainability planning, and related research. SWCA offers a top-to-bottom organizational focus on these fields that most engineering-based firms lack, and professional development opportunities that local specialty shops often can't provide. This is why SWCA has become the firm of choice for environmental and cultural resource professionals who seek to make the best use of their talents.

We recognize that our employees may have different career aspirations. In recognition of this, we recently developed a Scientific Leadership Program. This structured program allows SWCA's top subject experts to be recognized and rewarded for distinguished productivity and intellectual acumen, to make regular contributions to corporate strategies, and provide input to all levels of the company. Among other goals, this exciting program maintains and expands SWCA's science and technical capabilities and preserves the technically focused culture of the company.

To help us attract and keep the best and the brightest professionals, we provide a comprehensive core benefit program, coupled with professional and personal benefits that uniquely reflect our mission and values.  

SWCA is proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer encouraging diversity in the workplace. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, national origin, gender, age, religion, mental or physical disability, sexual orientation, veteran or marital status.
