Description

Senior Wildlife Biologist On-Call

Central Coast California

Santa Barbara, Ventura, Santa Maria, San Luis Obispo, Morro Bay, Paso Robles

Job Description

The On-Call Senior Biologist will be responsible for a range of environmental consulting services, including construction monitoring, avian species identification and nest surveys, general and focused biological field surveys and support, assisting with writing and reviewing technical reports and supporting documents such as Biological Technical Reports, Biological Assessments, technical memos, and providing as-needed field and office support to our local and regional Natural Resource team members.

Key Responsibilities

Plan and execute field assignments for Central Coast California-based work, with occasional travel to counties including, but not limited to, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara and Ventura Counties. Conduct general and species specific biological surveys and monitoring pursuant to the relevant regulations, codes and/or industry standards. Document field findings in monitoring logs, reports, memos or email communications, as appropriate. Communicate with client field contacts and ICF senior biologists.

About On-Call Employment with ICF

Given the seasonal or project-specific nature of our environmental work, ICF often hires environmental professionals as “On-Call” employees. On-Call employees are scheduled for work hours as they become available (we usually schedule work hours a few weeks ahead of time), and each on-call employee is free to accept or refuse the hours assigned to them in a given week. On-Call employees may work concurrent projects outside of their ICF assignment (along as their outside work does not create a conflict of interest with the work they do for ICF).

Requirements

  • A BA/BS in Biology, Ecology, or related discipline

  • 5+ years of environmental/consulting and biological field experience

  • Must have valid driver's license and successfully pass a Motor Vehicles Records (MVR) check.

Preferred Skills

  • Basic documentation/data management experience

  • Experience working in the environmental compliance and/or construction fields (i.e., biological construction monitoring).

  • Geographic Information System (GIS) software skills

  • Intermediate or advanced nest surveying, active nest monitoring, and buffer establishment.

  • Basic botanical knowledge of central and southern California

  • Avian nest monitoring and species identification skills

  • Ability to work collaboratively in a team environment

  • Strong written and oral communication skills

  • Strong organizational skills

  • Ability to respond timely to deployment requests (i.e., sometimes next day)

  • Ability to travel to field sites in Southern California and occasionally assist with surveys in rugged, undeveloped terrain

  • Ability and experience conducting work in active construction sites and communicating with operators

  • Proficiency in MS Office Applications (Word, Outlook, Excel)

This is an outstanding opportunity to work with talented and passionate individuals and to grow with a firm that believes in nurturing talent and developing long-term career success.
