Partner Expands National Environmental Solutions Group With Key Industry Hires

Partner Engineering and Science, Inc. (Partner) has increased our national Environmental Solutions Group offerings through key hires and an overall hiring push. With nearly a dozen environmental experts hired in the past 18 months, Partner’s Environmental Solutions team is now comprised of over 40 experienced professionals spanning coast to coast.

The addition of these professionals has increased the group’s ability to further service our clients with site characterization and remediation, brownfield redevelopment, regulatory agency negotiations, remedial cost estimating and transaction negotiations, litigation support and expert witness services, and environmental regulatory compliance.
