Green Yatra Is Hiring a Civil Engineer to Restore Mumbai's Water Bodies and Green Spaces
Mumbai, field-based | 2-4 years of experience | B.E./B.Tech in Civil or Environmental Engineering
Mumbai's lakes, wetlands and green pockets are under constant pressure from urban growth. Green Yatra, an organisation working under the tagline "Be the Change, Bring the Change...", is hiring a Civil/Environmental Engineer to help restore them.
About the Role
Green Yatra is looking for a Civil Engineer with hands-on experience in water body rejuvenation, environmental restoration and site execution. The position is based in Mumbai and is field-based, so the person hired will spend real time on project sites rather than behind a desk.
Who Should Apply
The organisation is asking for:
Experience: 2-4 years of hands-on work in environment-related projects.
Technical foundation: Strong civil or environmental engineering knowledge, with practical experience in site execution.
Qualification: A B.E. or B.Tech in Civil or Environmental Engineering, plus a relevant Master's degree or project experience. The posting graphic lists a Master's in an environmental field, while the accompanying text also accepts relevant project experience, so candidates with strong field backgrounds may still be considered.
Key Skills in Focus
The role draws on a mix of technical and managerial abilities:
Site execution: turning restoration designs into work on the ground.
Plantation project management: overseeing greening and afforestation work.
Water management: handling the hydrological side of rejuvenating lakes and other water bodies.
Project coordination: keeping teams, timelines and stakeholders aligned.
Contractor and vendor management: working with the people who carry out field work and supply materials.
Technical reporting: documenting progress, outcomes and compliance clearly.
Why This Role Matters
Environmental restoration projects are rarely just engineering exercises. Restoring a water body means understanding drainage, ecology, community use and long-term maintenance together. It also means managing contractors and vendors so that plans survive contact with reality. An engineer who can move between technical design, plantation work and reporting is well placed to make these projects succeed.
For engineers who want their work to have visible environmental impact, this is a chance to build a career in a growing field.
How to Apply
Interested candidates can send their resume by email to work@greenyatra.org or puja@greenyatra.org, or scan the QR code on the posting. More about the organisation is available at www.greenyatra.org.
