Swamp Stomp
Volume 14, Issue 36
Periodically we get calls about wetland related jobs. One aspect of our school is that we try to help our students find work. We often post this information on our wetland career page.
This past week we were contacted by a large professional services recruitment company in the northeast. They are trying to hire 30-40 wetland delineators for a large pipeline right-of-way project that runs from Connecticut into the Marcellus region of Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
Normally we would just port this job on our webpage and direct our students to it. However given the size of the job and the need for immediate placement we thought that we would post it as this week’s news event. Personally, I cannot remember the last time I was asked if I knew 30-40 people looking for a wetland job.
This is the job description and requirements.
- 3-10 years previous Wetland Delineation experience
- Fully proficient in state and federal procedures (e.g. 3-Parameter: vegetation, soils and hydrology) for wetlands delineation
- BS/MS degree in Environmental Science, Biology/Wetlands Science or soils science
- Wetlands and Soils Science Certifications preferred (PWS, CWS, Soil Science Cert)
- Ability to work long hours (with paid overtime) in a construction environment and some weekends is needed
- Strong verbal and written communication skills helpful along with working as part of a larger team
- Experience with GIS and GPS highly desirable
- This position requires leadership skills with the ability to lead and direct field teams
If you are interested in getting more information for the recruitment company we have posted a contact form below. We will forward you information on and have the recruiter contact you directly for your resume etc. The hiring company is using the recruiter to conduct the initial screens of potential candidates. They will be able to answer all of your questions. We do not have any additional information about this project. Please do not send us any resumes as we are not part of the hiring process.
This project is hiring in phases and we have been told that having the basic wetland training on your resume will go a long way to help you land this job. We have a couple of basic training sessions coming up this fall. We still have room and would love to see you in class!
Have a great week!
