Their interdisciplinary approach to solving complex environmental challenges makes them a leader in sustainable consulting, offering professionals the chance to work on impactful projects that shape regulatory and business practices worldwide.

About This Role

This Managing Consultant role involves leading the agrochemical and biologicals regulatory practice, providing strategic advice on federal and state pesticide registration, and managing multi-faceted project teams. It's impactful because you'll directly influence how companies navigate complex compliance landscapes while advancing sustainable agricultural practices in alignment with Ramboll's decarbonization mission.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day might involve morning client calls to discuss pesticide registration strategies, followed by reviewing regulatory submissions with your interdisciplinary team. Afternoons could include developing practice growth plans, preparing for trade association presentations, and coordinating with project managers to ensure deliverables stay on budget and timeline.

🎯 Who Ramboll Management Consulting Is Looking For

  • Has 5+ years of hands-on experience with agrochemical or biological products, including practical knowledge of registration processes and regulatory hurdles
  • Possesses deep working knowledge of FIFRA and can discuss specific sections or recent amendments relevant to client challenges
  • Holds a scientific degree (Biology, Chemistry, Environmental Science) and can apply that knowledge to real-world regulatory and compliance scenarios
  • Demonstrates proven ability to manage interdisciplinary project teams while maintaining budget and timeline constraints in a consulting environment

📝 Tips for Applying to Ramboll Management Consulting

1

Highlight specific FIFRA experience in your resume - mention particular sections you've worked with or cases where you applied FIFRA knowledge to solve client problems

2

Quantify your 5+ years of agrochemical experience with concrete examples: number of products registered, types of biological pesticides handled, or regulatory submissions managed

3

Research Ramboll's recent agrochemical projects or white papers and reference them in your application to show genuine interest in their specific work

4

Emphasize interdisciplinary collaboration experience since Ramboll specifically mentions working within multi-faceted teams across environment and health sciences

5

Include any trade association or conference participation relevant to agrochemicals, as business development through these channels is explicitly mentioned in the job description

✉️ What to Emphasize in Your Cover Letter

["Demonstrate understanding of Ramboll's decarbonization mission and how agrochemical compliance contributes to sustainable agriculture", 'Provide specific examples of managing complex regulatory projects involving both federal and state requirements', 'Highlight experience developing or expanding regulatory practices within interdisciplinary teams', 'Mention any direct experience with biological pesticides specifically, as this is called out separately from traditional agrochemicals']
