Description
On-Call Wildlife Biologist
Southern California
Job Description
The On-Call 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 southern California-based work, with occasional travel to counties including, but not limited to, Orange, Riverside, San Diego, Los Angeles, San Bernardino and Ventura Counties. Conduct general and species specific biological surveys and monitoring pursuant to the relevant regulations, codes and/or industry standards.

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
2+ 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.
