Another job posting!

Subject: DUC Job Opportunities: NWT Head & Seabird Bio

 

Folks,

 

Attached are two postings for job openings with Ducks Unlimited Canada through our Boreal Forest Program (http://www.ducks.ca/who-we-are/careers/). I would greatly appreciate your assistance in their distribution.

 

The first is for NWT Head of Conservation Programs based in Yellowknife. This is for my replacement now that I have moved to Edmonton. The second is for a Seabird Biologist that will focus on primarily arctic based projects. This position is currently a 3 year term with Edmonton as the preferred location but location may be negotiable.   

 

Both provide exciting personal and professional opportunities.  I’m happy to provide more information to anyone interested in applying.

 

Thanks!
