Birds Hill MB, Winnipeg MB

Advertisement Number: 40412

Salary(s): RS1 $1,573.60 - $1,848.80 bi-weekly

Closing Date: January 30, 2023

The Manitoba government recognizes the importance of building an exemplary public service reflective of the citizens it serves, where diverse abilities, backgrounds, cultures, identities, languages and perspectives drives a high standard of service and innovation. The Manitoba government supports equitable employment practices and promotes representation of designated groups (women, Indigenous people, persons with disabilities, visible minorities).

Employment Equity is a factor in selection for this competition. Consideration will be given to women, Indigenous people, visible minorities and persons with disabilities.

An eligibility list will be created for similar positions and will remain in effect until exhausted.

In your cover letter, please specify if you prefer to work in the Forest Health/Urban Forestry stream or the Forest Inventory and Regeneration stream.

The Forestry Field Services Program within Forestry and Peatlands Branch is seeking individuals to perform a technical field position that requires forest surveys and data collection. There are two streams of programming within the Forestry Field Services program; Forest Health and Urban Forestry, and Forest Inventory and Regeneration. The Forest Health and Urban Forestry stream includes data collection on forest health surveys, including invasive species surveys and the provincial Dutch elm disease program. This stream focuses on public engagement and surveys within urban settings, plot establishment and monitoring of forest health programs within forest settings. This work is typically performed within a team environment, however, may include surveying independently. The Forest Inventory and Regeneration stream includes field surveys and data collection on forest renewal programs. This stream focuses on assessing forest regeneration, collecting inventory data via measuring heights and diameters, and plant species identification. The forest inventory and regeneration stream involves working and staying in remote and isolated locations, and may include surveying independently.

Conditions of Employment:

- Must be legally entitled to work in Canada
- Must possess and maintain a valid full stage Manitoba Class 5 Driver's Licence or equivalent from other provinces without any restrictions.
- Must be willing and able to travel to remote locations throughout the Province of Manitoba via trucks, all-terrain vehicles, boats, or rotary or fixed wing aircraft.
- Must be willing and able to work overtime when required and work out-of-town for extended periods of up to ten days with overnight accommodations in bunkhouses, hotels and tents.
- Must be physically capable of performing duties of the position, which require moderate physical effort including carrying equipment such as chainsaws and forestry samples for long distances potentially over rough terrain and in adverse weather conditions.

Qualifications:
Essential:

- Enrolled in or a graduate of a Forestry/Natural Resource Management/Biological Science/Environmental Science Degree or a Diploma program in a recognized educational institution. An equivalent combination of education and experience may be considered.
- Experience collecting, recording and maintaining data with strong attention to detail.
- Experience working outdoors.
- Strong verbal communication skills, including the ability to communicate effectively with co-workers and the public.
- Ability to work independently under mínimal supervision.
- Experience driving a variety of vehicles, such as trucks or vans, including towing trailers over a variety of terrain, such as paved highways, gravel roads, and forestry roads/trails.
- Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to work in a team environment.
- Knowledge of safe work practices.

**Duties**:
All successful incumbents will be responsible for navigating to plot locations, collecting and recording data, communicating with the public, potentially completing forestry laboratory analysis and working under the Forest Health Protection Act. These positions are based out of Winnipeg and Birds Hill Operations Yard, with travel and overnight stays throughout Manitoba. For both streams of work, all successful incumbents will work some 10 day shifts to conduct field work.
