We are one of the most active environmental non-profits in the province and were established in 1969.

We are seeking a motivated person who will work as a technician with BC Government (specifically the Ministry of Water, Land and Resource Stewardship) on a project that is to support invertebrate research and field surveys, with a focus on bees, freshwater mussels, butterflies and other arthropods.

Work independently to conduct fieldwork within parks and protected areas, provincial crown lands and private lands (with permission) within approximately 3-hour radius around the Guildford area.
In some instances, be prepared to work in the field for shifts up to ten continuous days in length (10 on 4 off). Some weeks will involve overnight travel, including camping in campsites and/or remote areas, while other weeks will just require day trips from the Surrey area.
Work as an efficient team with other fellow crew members or other BC government staff working on related projects in a productive and professional manner. You may not be working with someone every day but may be on occasion.

Download their GPS data daily, as well as their photos from their camera, and maintain data and samples in an organized manner.

GPS electronic data recording will be required.
