All:

 

I am writing on behalf of a client, Fauske and Associates, located in Burr Ridge, IL.  More on what they do is here:  www.fauske.com .  They are seeking an EHS Coordinator.  I have cut/pasted the qualifications below.   They would prefer someone “local” to the Chicago area.

 

If you have any questions (other than salary), please contact me via email as I am away from a phone more than I’m near one recently.
