Canada British Columbia Conservation Foundation Full time

Salary: $20/hr + 4% vacation pay paid hourly, accommodation and per diem provided
The British Columbia Conservation Foundation (BCCF) is looking to fill one to two seasonal positions for Wildlife (Fisher) Telemetry Field Technicians in the Cariboo. Technicians will assist the BC Government’s ‘Recovering Fisher Populations’ Project in carrying out the fieldwork component relating female fisher survival rate and reproductive output to habitat. This key knowledge gap was identified during recovery planning for Columbian fisher. Outcomes of this research will provide government agencies with a greater understanding of what habitat quality is needed to improve fisher survival and reproductive outputs. Funding from Environment and Climate Change Canada and the Ministry of Water, Land and Resource Stewardship (WLRS) will contribute to the success of an ongoing telemetry project in BCs Interior Douglas Fir (IDF) Biogeoclimatic zone. Under the supervision of WLRS project leads, successful candidates will work in a team and on a flexible schedule to collect field data related to the reproductive output of female fishers, home range and habitat use of female fishers (VHF telemetry), and the ability of the habitat to support prey populations. Experience working outdoors in adverse weather and environmental conditions is necessary.
Deploying and checking remote wildlife cameras.
Assisting with small mammal live-trapping surveys.
Data entry and digitizing data collected in the field.
Access sites via ATV and hiking through thick brush in summer, via snowmobile and snowshoe in winter.

Asset Qualifications and skillsets:
