Opportunities at Cornice
There is more than one way to work with Cornice.
Join our internal team. Bring specialist expertise as an associate.
Contribute fractional support. Collaborate with us on a project.
The structure may differ, but the foundation is the same: meaningful contribution, clear expectations, practical support, and work delivered to a high standard.
Learn continuously. Contribute meaningfully. Build a career that lasts.
Cornice is a growing environmental team led by experienced industry professionals and strengthened by a trusted network of specialists.
We bring together people at different stages of their careers and with different kinds of expertise. Some are building their technical foundation. Others bring decades of experience. Some work directly within Cornice, while others contribute through independent, fractional, or project-specific relationships.
What matters is not that everyone arrives the same way. It is that each person is ready to contribute, communicate, learn, and take responsibility for their role in the work.
Experience counts. So does potential.
We have hired directly out of school and invested in building experience from the ground up.
That decision reflects something important about Cornice: we do not believe years of experience are the only evidence of future capability.
Curiosity matters. Initiative matters. Communication matters. The ability to receive feedback, follow through, and care about the quality of the work matters.
For developing professionals, we provide meaningful assignments, clear expectations, senior mentorship, and room to take on greater responsibility as capability grows.
For established professionals, we offer a connected environment where expertise is respected, contribution is visible, and collaboration does not require disappearing inside a large organization.
What working with Cornice asks of you
Cornice is flexible, collaborative, and supportive. We are also serious about responsibility and the standard of our work.
You may thrive here if you:
Take initiative, even when no one is watching

Communicate clearly and raise questions early
Value both field and office work
Are open to feedback, mentorship, and continued growth
Want to contribute, not simply complete assigned tasks
Can work independently while remaining accountable to a team
