RESTORATION JOB I am hiring a Revegetation Assistant for summer 2008 . I'm particularly looking for someone with restoration experience or at least some kind of field work experience. My first choice is to hire a post-graduate, so he/she could work into the fall. Description below (and on the RMBL webpage):
Description : The assistant's duties will include 1) revegetation of disturbed areas in and near the Gothic townsite, including transplanting plants and reseeding, 2) assisting with active management of invasive plants, and 3) using GPS equipment to map restoration efforts. We are looking for someone who is not afraid of hard work and has a sincere interest in applied restoration projects. The chosen person will work an average of 40 hours/week from approximately June 1 to September 30 (start and end dates are flexible). Benefits : $1200-1600/month DOE plus room, board (for the 10 weeks the dining hall is open), and station fees will be provided. To Apply : Complete applications should include a cover letter, a CV, and two letters of recommendation. Submission of application materials by email is preferable to submission by US postal mail. However, both will be accepted. Application materials submitted by email should be sent to Dr. Jennifer Reithel (jreithel at gmail.com). Materials sent via US postal mail should be addressed: Revegetation Assistant, RMBL, PO Box 519, Crested Butte, CO 81224. All application materials should clearly indicate the person's name and the position (Revegetation Assistant). Applications will be accepted until the position is filled. We will hire someone by April 1, 2008. Questions : contact Dr. Jennifer Reithel (jreithel at gmail.com). Thank you for letting your students know about these opportunities. Most of our students find us by word of mouth. For more information see the RMBL webpage <http://www.rmbl.org/>www.rmbl.org or contact me directly.
