Lead the Future of Aquatic Science and Environmental Impact in Canada

If you’re a senior fisheries professional ready to step into a role that blends technical leadership, high‑impact project work, and the opportunity to shape the future of aquatic resource management across Canada and beyond—this is your moment.

As a Managing Technical Consultant, Fisheries Biologist (Fixed-Term) with ERM (full-time, one-year maternity coverage with potential to convert to regular full-time), you will play a pivotal role in delivering complex, multimillion-dollar projects that influence environmental outcomes at scale. Based in Whitehorse, Yellowknife, Calgary, Saskatoon, Vancouver, or Toronto, this role positions you at the forefront of ERM’s growing Biodiversity & Ecosystems practice, where your expertise will directly contribute to strategic client solutions and the advancement of sustainable development across industries.

Why This Role Matters

You will be a key technical leader driving fisheries and aquatic programs that support some of the most significant mining and energy projects in Canada. Your work will help protect and restore aquatic ecosystems while shaping environmental strategy at both national and global levels. This is an opportunity to influence outcomes that matter—ecologically, socially, and commercially—while contributing to a world-class consulting team.

What Your Impact Is

In this role, you will:

Travel to beautiful, remote regions across Canada to support field programs and stewardship initiatives
Contribute to transformative mining and energy projects for major clients
Play a key leadership role in a growing fisheries team delivering complex work across Canada and globally
Operate from one of ERM’s major Canadian offices or within a flexible hybrid environment

Advanced written and oral communication skills, including technical reporting and permitting documentation
Strong knowledge of federal, provincial, and territorial regulations relevant to mining and oil & gas
Proven ability to manage deadlines in a fast-paced environment, work independently with minimal supervision, and travel extensively
Excellent problem-solving skills and a strong commitment to safety
Driver's License Required: This position requires a valid driver's license and/or the ability to operate a company vehicle due to the nature of job duties, which include frequent travel to various client locations across a large geographical area
Pleasure Craft Operator’s License
This position is not eligible for immigration sponsorship

Preferred

M.Sc. in Fisheries Biology or a related discipline
6+ years of consulting experience in freshwater fish and fish habitat assessments, sampling, aquatic biology, and water quality programs
Experience in hydrology, instream flow assessment, hydroacoustic/bathymetric assessment, and/or fish habitat offsetting
Electrofishing certification, Intermediate First Aid, and/or Swiftwater Rescue Training
Experience mentoring junior staff
A positive, collaborative, self-starter mindset aligned with ERM’s global mission

Key Responsibilities

Design and lead fish and fish habitat field programs across freshwater systems in Canada
Support planning, implementation, and monitoring of fisheries offsetting and compensation programs
Compile, manage, analyze, and interpret fish community, biology, and habitat data; support database management
Prepare technical documents including baseline studies, monitoring reports, impact assessments, permitting applications, and offsetting plans
Actively contribute to ERM’s Canadian and international aquatics/fisheries technical communities
Provide mentorship and guidance to junior biologists and field technicians

For the Managing Technical Consultant, Fisheries Biologist position, the anticipated annual base pay is $95,651–$119,999 (CAD). Actual pay will depend on factors such as education, experience, skills, location, performance, and business needs. In some cases, pay may fall outside this range. This role may be eligible for bonus pay (casual and fixed term/flex force employees are not bonus eligible).

We offer a comprehensive benefits package, including paid time off, parental leave, medical, dental, vision, life, disability, AD&D insurance, 401(k) or RRSP/DPSP, and other applicable benefits to eligible employees.

Note: Bonuses, commissions, and other forms of additional compensation are not guaranteed and subject to the sole discretion of ERM and its policies and procedures.
