Job Summary:

NewRange is looking for a motivated Geologist to support drilling programs at the NorthMet and Sunrise Cu-Ni-PGE projects, located in northern Minnesota. Reporting to the Geoscience Supervisor, the successful candidate will be primarily responsible for logging drill core, assistance with drill program execution and delivering geological interpretations that contribute to resource modelling and mine planning. The successful candidate can expect to participate in field activities from Hoyt Lakes to Babbitt, ensuring the safe and efficient execution of the drill programs. Field work for this temporary role is anticipated to begin mid January 2026 and end around late December 2026.

At NewRange Copper Nickel (NewRange), we act responsibly and strive to make a positive contribution to health and safety, environment, and communities through our activities.

NewRange is committed to unlocking a new domestic supply chain of critical metals for the transition to a low-carbon economy and positioning Minnesota as a world leader in sustainable mineral resource development.

NewRange will be conducting drilling programs in 2026 to further define the resource and to provide geological, geotechnical, and hydrogeological information that will ultimately inform an updated mine plan. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a rapidly growing and dedicated team committed to working safely while incorporating input from stakeholders, consultants, and regulators to advance a world-class development opportunity in one of the world’s most prospective metallogenic belts for copper, nickel, and platinum group metal mineralization.

We are more than 36,000 people, in over 70 countries, dedicated to improving quality of life. Everyone has an important role to play. With the power of many curious minds, together we can solve the world’s most complex challenges and deliver more impact together.

Role description:

Arcadis is seeking a Geologist to join our Resilience Environment team in Raleigh, North Carolina.

As a member of our Resilience Environmental team, you’ll play a key role in improving the quality of life. Drawing on your background in environmental science and geology, and your technical or sustainable expertise, you’ll contribute to projects focused on soil, water, and air quality, as well as monitoring and remediation efforts. You’ll also have the opportunity to work on pollution mitigation and control, materials management, and the protection of species and ecosystems. All in some of the world’s most dynamic locations.

We work to protect our natural environment and water resources, while powering our world for future generations. Around the world, we’re feeling the effects of climate change, rapid urbanization, and loss of biodiversity. The rate at which we’re seeing large-scale, unforeseen events such as floods and wildfires, is becoming more frequent. We are here to protect our natural environment and water resources, while powering our world for future generations. We are committed to sharing expertise and institutional knowledge across diverse practice areas with our junior staff, fostering their development into the next generation of environmental leaders. We advance our understanding of emerging contaminants and are engaged in some of the most challenging projects in our industry.

Role accountabilities:

As part of this role, you will be responsible for assisting Project Managers (PMs) and Task Managers (TMs) in planning and executing environmental site characterization, investigation, and remediation tasks.

Fieldwork will be a central part of this position, providing you the opportunity to work outdoors while receiving training in the collection and documentation of soil, air/vapor, groundwater, and surface water samples. You will oversee subcontractors, including drilling operations and the installation of groundwater wells. Additional responsibilities include remedial system operation and maintenance checks and repairs, facility inspections, soil gas (vapor intrusion) surveys, among other tasks. A strong focus on health and safety is essential when performing fieldwork.

• Field preparation, equipment procurement, and analytical laboratory sampling coordination.
• Field activities may include conducting site visits, site characterization activities included, but not limited to, performing drilling oversight for soil sampling and/or groundwater well installation, groundwater sampling, and/or excavation oversight. Field activities may include oversight of remedial system installation activities.
• Provide emergency response support (environmental sample planning and collection, rail client and state/federal regulator correspondence, onsite contractor oversight) for train derailments/HAZMAT spills, with the potential to travel throughout the US.
• Writing and preparing technical reports, work plans, letters, and memoranda.
• Office work will include task coordination, data analysis, proposal development and costing, health & safety plan preparation, report writing, regulatory and historical file review, project strategy development, schedule and budget management.
• You will assist project managers with preparing subcontracts and overseeing their work

To succeed in this role, you should have strong written and verbal communication skills, be self-motivated, and demonstrate independent thinking. You must be able to work effectively both in a

team setting and independently, including remotely. Adaptability and creative problem-solving are essential, as is the ability to collaborate with others. A proactive approach to health and safety is crucial—if you notice anything unusual or that may pose a risk, speak up. Your awareness and communication play a vital role in maintaining a safe and sustainable environment for everyone.

This position involves both fieldwork (60-100%) and office-based tasks such as task management, data analysis, report preparation, scope development, and client communications. While most fieldwork will be local to the Carolinas, occasional travel beyond the region may be required, with weekends typically spent at home. Initially, the role will involve a 50/50 split between travel and office work, with travel expected to decrease over time as your responsibilities within project teams expand and evolve.

Qualifications & Experience:

Required:

• Bachelor of Science in Geology, Hydrogeology, Environmental Engineering, or closely related field (i.e., environmental science, physical science)
• 2 years of relevant work experience

Preferred:

• Master of Science degree in Geology or closely related field
• Current OSHA 40-hour HAZWOPER training
• Experience supervising environmental drilling
