A Strong Local Presence
“Our team ‘grew up’ in Michigan and has deep local ties to sites and clients,” Sean says. “We know the state regulations and have a strong understanding of the history of many sites throughout Michigan. We have an excellent working knowledge of the regulations and have developed strong trust relationships with the regulators.”
“We are starting off strong with a deep bench in our Solid Waste and Environmental Compliance practice areas and plan to grow into a complete, full-service office,” he adds. “CEC is currently working for Michigan-based clients from multiple offices across the country and is looking forward to serving these clients from a local office.”
Tim concurs, he wants to highlight all of CEC’s capabilities. “We are very interested in growing our Detroit location and, in the short term, looking to add senior level practitioners in our Civil and Environmental practices.”
Michelle Vargo, Senior Corporate Recruiter for the new Detroit office, adds it is an exciting opportunity which allows prospective staff to be part of a new office without having to start it from the ground up.
Sean points out CEC Detroit is a growing office with great opportunities for career development, where CEC’s employee-owners have a personal stake in the business.
