Assessment accommodation

A sunset program is a specific type of funding arrangement characterized by its limited duration and external source of funds. These programs are not intended to be permanent and are typically associated with specific projects or initiatives. If a program is designated as sunset-funded, the period of employment in such programs does not count towards the three-year cumulative working period. This provision allows departments to manage temporary projects without the obligation of converting term employees to indeterminate status.

The PC-03 science project officer will be assisting geoscience-related federal government funded research projects, i.e. related to surficial geology, bedrock geology, geophysics, geochemistry and energy. The PC-03 will be responsible for supporting the implementation of scientific project directions set by Science Managers and project operational requirements to ensure successful completion of project and program deliverables and outcomes.

- Completes agreements with external collaborators and required amendments in a timely manner.
- Supports the scientific and operational requirements of projects, and works with Research Leads, Managers, and engagement staff in responding to project needs such as licensing and acquisitions.
- Promotes open communications by providing regular updates to Managers and GEM-GeoNorth Coordination Office (i.e. progress, deliverables, timing, information requests, suggesting agenda items for meetings, etc.).
- Works with scientists to ensure progress and that logistics-related issues and delays are managed and provides solutions to ensure timely delivery.
- Works with Polar Continental Shelf Program (PCSP) on managing Field Equipment Unit orders, shipping, returning equipment, samples, etc.
- Contributes to the development of horizontal procedures relating to logistics or finances that help standardize program operations.

**Work environment**:
