<div class="content-intro"><p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">At RES, we’re looking for purpose-driven individuals who are passionate about restoration and sustainability, and who want their work to make a lasting environmental impact. Our team members go above and beyond, bringing initiative, integrity, and a strong work ethic to every project. Collaboration is key—we thrive on teamwork, open communication, and diverse perspectives. In a field that constantly changes, we value those who are resilient, adaptable, and resourceful in the face of challenges. If you're intellectually curious, eager to learn, and ready to help restore ecosystems and protect natural resources, you’ll find your place here.</span></p></div><p style="line-height: 1.5;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">We’re currently hiring for an <strong data-start="868" data-end="882">Operator I</strong> to support construction and restoration efforts on sites across Northeast region. This role is ideal for someone with <strong data-start="1000" data-end="1050">construction or landscape equipment experience</strong>, a commitment to safe field practices, and a strong work ethic.
