Employer job description
From Northwestern Mutual's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
About the Job:
The Environmental Risk Manager will serve as a key technical and risk-management advisor within Real Estate Services, supporting real estate debt and equity investments by identifying, evaluating, communicating, and managing environmental risks throughout due diligence, closing, construction, ownership, and portfolio management.
This role requires strong environmental judgment, the ability to interpret consultant findings and regulatory issues, and the confidence to translate technical concerns into clear investment implications for senior leaders, investment teams, legal partners, asset managers, and external stakeholders.
The Environmental Risk Manager protects the organization’s long-term real estate investment interests by ensuring that environmental conditions, regulatory obligations, remediation matters, insurance considerations, and reputational exposures are understood before capital is committed and appropriately managed after investment approval. The position is less about routine engineering execution and more about environmental risk counseling, investment judgment, consultant oversight, and disciplined escalation of material risks.
