Are you looking to join an organization that is growing and dynamic? What about a high-energy, collaborative environment that rewards hard work?

J.S. Held is a global consulting firm that combines technical, scientific, financial, and strategic expertise to advise clients seeking to realize value and mitigate risk. Our professionals serve as trusted advisors to organizations facing high stakes matters demanding urgent attention, staunch integrity, proven experience, clear-cut analysis, and an understanding of both tangible and intangible assets.

The firm provides a comprehensive suite of services, products, and data that enable clients to navigate complex, contentious, and often catastrophic situations.

Whether it is honing your skills or building your network, we know that success cannot come without growth. Our programs equip you with the knowledge and training you need to play a valuable role on your team and establish a long-term career.

Job Description

The Senior Forensic Technician is responsible for leading the technical design, drafting, and quality assurance processes for residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional building restoration projects following catastrophic incidents, structural failures, environmental damage, and insurance losses. This role serves as a senior technical resource within the organization, providing expertise in building assessment, restoration design, building code compliance, drafting standards, and technical review.

Working closely with Project Managers, Engineers, Building Science Specialists, and clients, the Senior Forensic Technician manages complex assignments from initial site investigation through final permit-ready drawing issuance while ensuring technical excellence, consistency, and adherence to company standards. While this is not a people-management position, the role provides mentorship, technical guidance, and leadership to technicians and junior drafting staff.

Key Responsibilities

Function in a defined professional capacity with clients, contractors, building owners, and building officials when required.
Manage time to consistently meet strict deadlines.
Collaborate with multi-disciplinary teams on assignments.
Practice proper safety protocols and supplied PPE when applicable (on sites).
Request feedback and act on the opportunities to develop and grow skills to reach the organizational progression path.
Address work-related concerns promptly with superiors and accept support for improvement where necessary.
Engage in continuing professional development program(s) and course(s) to stay updated and augment professional knowledge and competency.
Foster a positive and productive work environment, ensuring clear communication and alliance within the team(s).
Take appropriate steps to advance through the stages of progression as detailed in the EFE Standards and Procedures for the role.
Continuously monitor and assess personal and departmental processes and procedures; identify areas for improvement and suggest solutions to enhance efficiency within the technical division.
Accurate and timely logging of billable hours with project numbers is essential.
Ensure all projects are completed expertly and as scheduled and communications are forthcoming to all involved parties.
Embody and promote the values of Element, acting as a brand ambassador for the organization.
Any other duties needed to help drive our Vision, fulfill our Mission, and abide by our Organization’s Values.
