At RES, we’re looking for purpose-driven individuals who are passionate about restoration and sustainability, and who want their work to make a lasting environmental impact. Our team members go above and beyond, bringing initiative, integrity, and a strong work ethic to every project. Collaboration is key—we thrive on teamwork, open communication, and diverse perspectives. In a field that constantly changes, we value those who are resilient, adaptable, and resourceful in the face of challenges. If you're intellectually curious, eager to learn, and ready to help restore ecosystems and protect natural resources, you’ll find your place here.

RES is looking for a Solutions Analyst II to join our team in Houston, TX.

As a Solutions Analyst II, you’ll sit at the intersection of data, permitting, and business strategy—turning complex regulatory, technical, and financial information into clear, decision-ready insights. Your work will directly support opportunity qualification, proposal development, market/client research, and deal analysis, helping RES deliver nature-based solutions across our markets.

  • You’ll build durable, high-demand skills. You’ll deepen your capabilities in analysis, writing, GIS/data tools, stakeholder preparation, and strategic thinking.

What Your Day-to-Day Might Look Like

Your work will blend research, writing, analysis, and collaboration. You will:

  • Build desktop evaluations and early-stage opportunity assessments using environmental, regulatory, and site data.

  • Outline permitting pathways and constraints, applying working knowledge of key regulations (e.g., CWA Section 404, ESA Sections 7 & 10, local stormwater requirements).

  • Research clients, industries, and markets to prepare teams for external meetings and opportunity pursuit decisions.

  • Draft and coordinate RFQ/RFP responses, proposals, scopes of work, and internal memos—creating polished, client-ready deliverables.

  • Work with large datasets and financial models: summarize trends, interpret outputs, and perform QA/QC on pro formas, budgets, and basic P&L inputs.

  • Translate business requirements and technical content into clear narratives for both technical and non-technical audiences.

Qualifications (Required)

  • Bachelor’s degree (any discipline; environmental, engineering, planning, business, economics, or similar is common)

  • Minimum 2 years of experience in a related field (or demonstrated comparable competencies)

  • Experience or knowledge in public infrastructure funding, project development, or planning (can be direct or adjacent experience)

  • Strong working knowledge of Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint and ability to produce polished, client-ready documents (Adobe Pro preferred)

  • Excel data handling + formulas; comfort working with large datasets

  • Fundamental understanding of environmental regulations and permitting (e.g., 404, ESA 7/10, stormwater)

  • Excellent communication, with strong organization, attention to detail, and time management

Preferred / Nice to Have

  • Working knowledge of ArcGIS (preferred)

  • Experience with proposal writing (RFQ/RFPs, scopes, technical narratives)

  • Experience working directly with permitting strategy, regulatory agencies, or permit applications

  • Coding skills (Python, R, SQL, etc.) for analysis/automation

You Will Thrive in This Role If You

  • Enjoy blending research, analysis, and writing to tell a clear story with data

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
