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.

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.
