Forestry Field Workers (Forestry, Logging & Mill Operations)

WCM Forestry is looking for temporary forestry field workers to collect data for Silviculture Surveys in the last part of the 2019 field season. The 2019 field season would run right to the end of October. There will be the potential for pile burning in the month of November and part of December 2019. The surveying may also carry over into the 2020 field season with the potential start-up date in the middle of April.

Job duties the silviculture surveys include navigating around in a clear-cut using a GPS unit, map, and compass. Data would be recorded on PDA device. Field work conditions may be very physically and mentally demanding due to the terrain, weather, biting bugs, and potential aggressive wildlife. Safety First.

Some experience in silviculture surveys would be an asset. Additional training will be provided. The successful candidate will be required to provide their own all weather gear (rain gear), rubber boots and above the ankle hiking boots. A valid class 5 driver license is required. Level One 1st Aid would be beneficial, but not mandatory. There may be some camp work involved.
