Project Manager Landfill and Biogas / Climate Protection

About the job

Oester Messtechnik GmbH is a young, dynamic company based in Thun. Our innovative team specialises in the collection and processing of spatial data as well as measurement data in the fields of landfill and biogas.

Methane emissions from landfills and biogas plants are not only safety-relevant but also have significant impacts on the climate. We locate and quantify these emissions, providing our customers with important decision-making bases – also with regard to climate protection.

To strengthen our team, we are looking for you as

Project Manager Landfill and Biogas / Climate Protection

Your Tasks

After a familiarisation period, you will plan and conduct measurement campaigns at old disposal sites, operational landfills, and biogas plants. We usually work in pairs and support you in expanding your gas-specific knowledge. You will learn to handle the numerous measuring devices from the ground up with us.

The measurement data collected in the field all have a spatial reference. Therefore, they are recorded directly in the GIS (QField) and then further processed in the office with QGIS. This enables us to maintain centralised data storage and a semi-automated evaluation of the measurement data.

You will contribute your experience in the contaminated sites or landfill sector to carry out assessments within the framework of technical investigations or remediation projects and to identify possible solutions.

In the long term, you will accompany all steps of a project with us: from the offer through fieldwork and the report to the invoice. In our small team, each of us takes responsibility for our shared success.

We are highly specialised and operate in an area where the development of customised solutions is essential. Therefore, we rely on innovation, modern working tools, and the constant further development of our methods.

You take initiative, seek new solutions, and gladly take on responsibility? Then you are exactly right with us!
