Two Field Technicians Needed - Freshwater Ecology and Conservation Laboratory (UW)

Field Technicians in Freshwater Fish Ecology – University of Washington

We are looking for two field technicians to join the Freshwater Ecology and Conservation Laboratory (Dr. Julian Olden, University of Washington) to assist with a series of field projects in Washington and Oregon. Projects include the 1) investigation of the ecology and distribution of invasive smallmouth bass in the John Day River, Oregon, 2) animal (fish, crayfish, snail) and plant community surveys in the Chehalis River, Washington, and 3) animal sampling in the Puget Sound Lowlands, Washington.

Description: Field technicians will assist with extensive snorkel surveys (40+ miles of river) and the active trapping and netting of fishes in various field locations in Washington and Oregon. Other tasks will include collecting, measuring and tagging fish, assessing habitat, taking water samples and recording data. Field sites are remote (no Internet or cell service) and teams will be tent camping for several consecutive weeks each month. In general, applicants should be prepared for changing plans, to be gone for extended periods, work long days, navigate variable weather conditions, enjoy incredible scenery and have a lot of fun.

Dates: Project dates of employment are June 8th through mid-September, 2015.

Salary: $520/week. Field and cooking equipment, food and transportation from University of Washington to field sites is provided. Applicants will need their own basic camping equipment (tent, sleeping bag and sleeping pad).

Qualifications: Willingness and ability to work remotely in both pristine and urban aquatic systems and spend extended periods of time camping. Required attributes include: valid driver’s license, ability to lift 50lbs, ability to swim/snorkel for extended periods, and outdoor/camping experience. Preference will be given to candidates with prior experience in fish ecology. Patience with changing plans and ability to work well both independently and on a team are preferred.

To apply: send a cover letter (including dates of availability and experience), a current resume, and names and contact information for two references to esuther@uw.edu.
Deadline to apply: May 15, 2015
