Who You Are: You’re someone who exudes enthusiasm for forestry, possesses a deep passion
for the field, and demonstrates a keen interest in Indigenous relations. You should have a
profound understanding of Indigenous ways of knowing, and an established knowledge of
forestry practices. You excel as a skilled communicator, adept at collaborating closely with

Your Impact: As a Planning Forester, you will play a crucial role in our team of forest analysts,
planners, and specialists in forest operations. You will provide essential support for the forest
land management requirements of our diverse client base, including Indigenous, government,
and industry stakeholders.


Your journey with us will involve leading signature projects such as the innovative Forest
Landscape Planning Pilots. These initiatives are designed to address critical issues, such as
ecosystem restoration, integration of Indigenous knowledge, preservation of old growth forests,
and enhancing watershed-level biodiversity. You will contribute to diverse forest management
planning activities, including addressing species at risk, integrating Indigenous perspectives,
assessing timber availability and economics, managing recreation and non-timber values,
overseeing access, mitigating wildfire risks, promoting carbon sequestration, and addressing
climate change concerns.

GROW WITH US: What started as a small team of Timber Development Engineers, has grown
over the last 20 years into an industry renowned west coast consultancy, employing 130+
people in multiple communities. At Strategic, our mission is to deliver technical expertise to our
valued clients, cultivate a secure and positive working environment, and champion community
prosperity. Our commitment to your personal and professional growth is reflected in our
comprehensive benefits package. We offer employer paid health and dental care, RSP
