🏢 About Ramboll Management Consulting

Ramboll Management Consulting uniquely focuses on driving decarbonization and sustainable business models globally, positioning itself at the forefront of environmental consulting with a strong emphasis on practical, science-based solutions. The company's interdisciplinary approach and commitment to sustainability make it an attractive workplace for professionals passionate about creating tangible environmental impact through consulting. Working here offers the opportunity to contribute to meaningful projects that align regulatory compliance with broader sustainability goals.

About This Role

This Managing Consultant role involves leading the agrochemical and biologicals regulatory practice while providing strategic advice on federal and state pesticide registration, directly supporting clients in navigating complex compliance landscapes. The position is impactful because it combines technical expertise with business development, helping companies align their products with environmental and health regulations while advancing Ramboll's mission of sustainable business practices. You'll be building and managing a specialized practice area within a remote US team.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day might involve morning client consultations on pesticide registration strategies, followed by project management meetings with interdisciplinary teams working on compliance timelines and budgets. Afternoons could include developing regulatory practice materials, researching state-level regulatory updates, and preparing for trade association engagements to support business development. The remote nature means coordinating virtually with team members across time zones while maintaining focus on delivering high-quality, strategic advice to agrochemical clients.

🎯 Who Ramboll Management Consulting Is Looking For

  • Has 5+ years of hands-on experience with agrochemical or biological products, specifically in regulatory contexts involving FIFRA compliance and pesticide registration processes
  • Possesses deep working knowledge of FIFRA beyond basic familiarity, with demonstrated ability to apply it strategically in client advisory scenarios
  • Holds a scientific degree (Biology, Chemistry, Environmental Science) and can translate technical concepts into business-focused regulatory strategies
  • Demonstrates proven experience managing multi-faceted project teams in environmental consulting, with specific examples of delivering work on time and within budget

📝 Tips for Applying to Ramboll Management Consulting

1

Quantify your 5+ years of agrochemical experience with specific examples of FIFRA applications, pesticide registration projects, or biological product compliance work

2

Highlight any experience with state-level agrochemical regulations in addition to federal FIFRA knowledge, as the role mentions both federal and state registration

3

Demonstrate interdisciplinary collaboration experience by describing specific projects where you worked across scientific, regulatory, and business teams

4

Research Ramboll's recent agrochemical or pesticide-related projects and reference how your skills align with their current work in your application materials

5

Emphasize remote work capabilities and self-management skills, as this is a remote US position requiring independent leadership of a practice area
