**Research Coordinator - Saskatchewan Bat Conservation**:
**Nature of Work**: The individual in this position will be responsible for coordinating a large-scale field-based project on endangered bats in Saskatchewan. Coordination with collaborators and partners will enable province-wide searches for critical and important habitat for endangered bat species in the province. Additional responsibilities for this role will be varied and include (but not be limited to): site visits to potential hibernacula in the province; land-owner meetings; communication and collaboration with partners (including government and not for profit agencies); interviewing, training and overseeing temporary field technicians; and associated administrative duties (e.g., financial record keeping, preparation of permits and reports). Fieldwork will include mist-netting for bats, deployment of acoustic detectors, blood sampling (to quantify pesticide exposure), as well as transport, maintenance, and oversight of the use of a mobile field energetic physiology lab. The lab is housed within a 30’ trailer and contains portable respirometry equipment (to measure metabolic rates) and quantitative magnetic resonance technology (to measure body composition). It will be used to measure these parameters in captured bats. During the field season, atypical work hours can be expected (e.g., mist-netting for bats at night and radio-tracking, acoustic detector deployment, and insect sample collection during the day).

**Typical Duties or Accountabilities**:

- ** **Passive acoustic monitoring for bats - including: site selection and deployment of detectors, coordination with partners and land-owners in deployment, manual vetting and analysis of acoustic data and acoustic database management.
