Take Charge of Your Career at Interstates At Interstates, we don't just show up to work, we show up for each other. From our headquarters in Iowa to job sites across the country, we're doing award-winning electrical, controls, automation, and OT work that powers industrial facilities for clients here in the U.S. and around the world. Whether you're bending conduit, wiring panels, writing code, supporting projects, or helping things run behind the scenes, you'll be part of a crew that works hard, shares laughs, and takes pride in doing quality work. We believe in building strong teams, doing the right thing, and making a difference in the communities where we live. If you want to grow and do meaningful work, you'll feel at home here. Location: Omaha, NE office Travel: Approximately 30% travel to manufacturing facilities, with occasional extended days for training. Base pay range: $80,000-$90,000. Help make safety consistent-and practical-across the places we work If you enjoy being out on the shop floor, helping teams solve real problems, and turning safety requirements into practices people can use, this role offers the opportunity to make a difference across multiple manufacturing facilities. As an early-career Area EHS Specialist, you'll help strengthen environmental, health, and safety performance across multiple manufacturing facilities through training, audits, planning, and incident investigations. With guidance, you'll build practical experience and develop trusted relationships with facility teams as you grow in the role. What You'll Do Conduct EHS audits and evaluations at multiple facilities. Support job hazard analyses (JHAs), risk assessments, and hazardous-waste disposal planning. Deliver EHS training and help teams apply company standards consistently. Review EHS data, identify trends, and share insights that can guide improvements. Assist with incident investigations and follow-up actions. Support environmental compliance activities, including stormwater pollution prevention, no-exposure certification inspections, and Tier 2 reporting. Build working relationships across facilities while continuing to grow your EHS knowledge. What You'll Bring Required A degree in Occupational Safety or a related field is preferred; equivalent consideration may be given to candidates with at least three years of manufacturing or industrial EHS experience. OSHA 30 certification. Strong attention to detail, communication, organization, and time-management skills. Willingness to travel approximately 30% to manufacturing facilities. Preferred Working knowledge of safety practices and OSHA and EPA requirements. Familiarity with stormwater pollution prevention, no-exposure certification inspections, and Tier 2 reporting. CHST or CSP certification. What Success Looks Like in This Role You help assigned facilities apply EHS standards consistently, follow through on audit findings and incident actions, and use training and data insights to support safer work practices. Why This Role Stands Out You won't be limited to one facility or one routine. You'll gain hands-on experience across manufacturing operations, help teams make safety practices work in the real world, and build your skills with guidance. Working with a variety of facilities and teams offers a strong foundation for a long-term EHS career.
