Integrated Statistics is looking for an Ecologist to support the US Fish
and Wildlife Service's Fairbanks Fish and Wildlife Conservation Office.
The Ecologist will assist with Section 7 consultations, pursuant to the
Endangered Species Act of 1973 as amended. The Ecologist will be
responsible for analyzing the impacts of a wide range of projects on
listed species and critical habitat.
*This position is concerned with regulatory and analytical processes,
not field research.*
*Duties*
The job duties include:
* Conducting programmatic analysis, including synthesizing and
preparing scientific literature, data, maps, and reports.
* Researching, developing and writing technical documents including
letters and Biological Opinions. These documents explain the
analysis and conclusions of FWS regarding potential consequences of
a given project on the ESA-listed species under our jurisdiction.
The species include polar bears, and both spectacled and
Alaska-breeding Steller’s eiders.
* Developing minimization measures that reduce potential impacts to
listed species and critical habitat, by working in concert with FWS
staff across multiple programs, with other Federal agency staff, and
with project proponents.
* Assisting with other tasks that support the Endangered Species
Program of the Field Office, such as developing species status
assessments and recovery plans.
*Qualifications*
The candidate should possess:
* A Bachelor’s degree or higher in natural resource management,
biological sciences, or a closely related field.
* Directly relevant work experience in the field of environmental policy.
* At least three years of experience in conducting Section 7 or
similar regulatory consultations.
* Demonstrated proficiency in writing technical reports and policy
papers in a timely manner.
* Demonstrated ability to apply excellent critical thinking and
written communication skills.
* Excellent written and oral communication skills.
The position is expected to last for one year. The position is eligible
for the benefits described on the Integrated Statistics website. The
position will start with a period of remote work to accommodate pandemic
restrictions, but the Office is based in Fairbanks. A writing sample
will be requested. To apply for this position, go to
