Job Description:
This job starts in April and ends in August.
Who you are: You enjoy being outdoors and have a passion for
working in wildlife. You enjoy field work and in your personal life
enjoy camping, backpacking and hiking. You have a positive
attitude, good work ethic, aptitude to learn new skills, and are
comfortable navigating to remote forest settings by yourself at
night. It's helpful if you have developed the ability to identify
owl species by sound too.
What the job is: This job is focused on conducting Northern Spotted
and Barred Owl surveys as required by Green Diamond's Habitat
Conservation Plan and other pre-harvest raptor surveys as required
by the California Forest Practice Rules for Timber Harvest Planning
and Operations. You will be working 90% of the time in the field.
The ideal candidate may have some knowledge in conducting owl or
other types of raptor surveys. Experience with sage grouse
monitoring is very similar to what we do here at Green Diamond with
the remote night work, breeding observations and ATV use. You will
get plenty of job training prior to the start of the season. Your
safety is our number one priority so training includes all the
safety aspects of the job as well. We have protocols for
everything.
Work schedule: This job is mostly night work as you see in the
schedule below. The start and end times in your day will fluctuate
based on the time of year.
Where you'll work: You will be working on nearly 397,0000 acres of
Green Diamond's privately held forest property, located in Humboldt
and Del Norte Counties along the Northern California coast. Our
offices are nestled in the redwood forest near the Pacific
Ocean.
Compensation:
The rate for this job is $20.00 per hour. Green Diamond offers a
few benefits for seasonal jobs. These include participation in the
401(k) plan with match and access to the Employee Assistance
Program. Paid days off include company holidays that occur during
the season, up to 2 floating (personal) holidays and 3 days of
bereavement leave and 2 days unpaid bereavement. Sick leave is
available to take once you start. It accrues at 3.08 hours every
pay period. We provide a company vehicle for business use. More
information about these benefits can be found at
www.greendiamond.com/people/career-opportunities.
Who Green Diamond is:We grow and nurture forests, a renewable
resource to build homes, schools, and household necessities,
harnessing carbon every single day we operate. We're a 5th
generation, family-owned company that is guided by our values of
environmental stewardship and supporting our local communities. The
history of our Company spans over 130 years. We do what's right,
even when it is the harder path to follow. We focus on the health
and safety of our people first - by taking care of all our
resources, we plan to be here for another 130 years.
