The Massachusetts Natural Heritage & Endangered Species Program, part of the Division of Fisheries & Wildlife has an opening for State Botanist.
The State Botanist compiles and analyzes data on the occurrence and distribution of populations and habitats of the state's vascular flora, especially its rare and endangered plant species. As an integral part of the Natural Heritage & Endangered Species Program (NHESP) the botanist also plans and implements inventory, research and management programs to conserve the Commonwealth's endangered, threatened and special concern plant species. This is a Civil Service position and the application must be through the state, using the criteria on the state website. https://jobs.hrd.state.ma.us/recruit/public/31100001/job/job_view.do?pos tingId=J14218&code=search.public&companyId=59 You need all of the above link from https to "=59" on the 2nd line.
