Job Summary
The Team
The Thompson Cariboo Regional Operations, Cariboo Section is a newly established, flexible, and cooperative group dedicated to maintaining the pristine parks in the Northern BC corridor.

You'll work closely with the Area Supervisor and collaborate with other regional teams, all while contributing to the vital balance between conservation and recreation.
The Role
In this role, you'll engage in a dynamic mix of fieldwork, planning, paperwork, maintenance, and purchasing, with each day bringing a new adventure-from crafting First Nation Consultation Packages to patrolling parks by vessel or maintaining vital infrastructure. Your work will have a direct impact on conservation efforts and public education, helping protect and preserve Northern BC's pristine parks and unique wildlife. This is a rare opportunity to explore some of the most remote and beautiful landscapes in the region, where few have ventured, all while contributing to the preservation of these incredible environments. Your dedication to environmental stewardship will be highly valued in this role.
