Environmental Manager Jobs in Texas: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a environmental manager in Texas?
Most environmental manager roles in Texas require a bachelor's degree in environmental science, engineering, geology, or a related field. While Texas does not mandate a single state license for the title itself, most employers expect credentials such as a Certified Hazardous Materials Manager designation, a Certified Environmental Professional credential, or a Professional Engineer license issued through the Texas Board of Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors for roles involving engineering oversight. Gaining experience with TCEQ permitting and compliance is essential for advancement.
How much do environmental managers make in Texas?
Environmental managers in Texas earn a median of about $134,390 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $78,050 for the lowest 10% to over $220,370 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire environmental managers in Texas?
Employers hiring environmental managers in Texas right now include Burns & McDonnell, AECOM, and Crothall Healthcare, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Texas's concentration of energy, chemical manufacturing, and large infrastructure projects means demand is particularly consistent among refinery operators, engineering and consulting firms, and state and municipal agencies managing compliance obligations.
Which Texas cities have the most environmental manager jobs?
Houston, Austin, and Dallas have the most environmental manager openings in Texas right now. Houston dominates due to its dense petrochemical and energy corridor, while Dallas attracts demand from corporate headquarters, construction, and consulting firms, and San Antonio draws openings from military installations, utilities, and municipal environmental agencies serving one of the state's fastest-growing populations.
Are there remote environmental manager jobs in Texas?
Yes, but they're rare. Environmental management is largely a field-based role requiring site visits, regulatory inspections, and hands-on compliance oversight, which limits full-time remote work. About 69% of environmental manager openings tied to Texas are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting that hybrid arrangements exist mainly for the reporting, documentation, and agency communication components of the role rather than fieldwork.
How can I get hired as a environmental manager in Texas with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is an environmental technician, compliance analyst, or EHS coordinator role, which large Texas employers such as refinery operators, engineering firms, and TCEQ-regulated manufacturers use as a pipeline for developing managers. Pursuing a Certified Hazardous Materials Manager credential or completing training recognized by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality strengthens early applications. Internships with engineering consultancies or state agencies in Houston or Austin give candidates direct TCEQ exposure that many hiring managers treat as equivalent to a year of entry-level experience.
