More than 300 EM employees have recently retired, resulting in a large amount of job vacancies across the cleanup program.
U.S. Department of Energy Office of Environmental Management (EM) Workforce Management Office is implementing recruitment efforts to fill the vacancies with college graduates, early career professionals, mid-career candidates and seasoned veterans.
Fostering science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education and employment pipelines is critical to EM, particularly in the face of projected workforce gaps. EM is committed to promoting STEM initiatives and developing an inclusive STEM workforce of the future through management and participation in collaborative programs.
The open positions offer opportunities across many different disciplines, including engineering, science, business, management, safety and information technology.
EM took part in a major recruitment effort at the recent 2023 Waste Management Symposia. The job fair was available to conference attendees, and a virtual component allowed participants to browse available posted jobs, visit virtual employer booths and connect live on the platform.
More than 180 people who visited the virtual job fair expressed interest in EM careers. Other employers at the job fair included EM field sites. The virtual job fair will continue online through March 31. More information and registration can be found here.
Open positions across EM and the broader DOE can be found here.
