Invasive Species Field Technician – EKISC
As the Field Technician, you will be our “weed warrior,” working hard to fight the impacts of invasive species within the East Kootenay Region. Together, with the direction of the Field Operations Coordinator, you will travel across the region to conduct fieldwork activities such as conducting invasive plant inventories, conducting lake monitoring for invasive mussels, reseeding disturbed sites, establishing and monitoring research trials, mechanically managing weeds, monitoring invasive plant infestations and treatments, managing data collection, installing signage, and helping with monitoring of vegetation plots. From weed pulls to water sampling, the majority of your work is spent outside. You will also get an opportunity to work with the outreach team when they need a hand with community weed pulls, display booths, and delivering practical workshops.
