At Jacobs, we're challenging today to reinvent tomorrow by solving the world's most critical problems for thriving cities, resilient environments, mission-critical outcomes, operational advancement, scientific discovery and cutting-edge manufacturing, turning abstract ideas into realities that transform the world for good.

Your impact

When it comes to environmental consulting, we’re helping our clients protect our world’s natural resources.

As a Junior Aquatic Field Biologist, you will have the opportunity to be mentored and provide support during aquatic surveys, and support other biophysical disciplines as needed. This position will start in the spring with an anticipated 80% of travel for fieldwork and 20% office work.

Knowledge and understanding of fisheries and aquatic environmental assessment methods
Physical ability to work safely and be comfortable in and around fast-flowing and deep water systems
Experience conducting biological or environmental work in an outdoor setting
Willingness and comfort working in the field in remote locations for up to 2 or 3 weeks at a time and overnight at hotels and project work camps
Positive attitude and self-motivated to learn and develop as a valuable team member
Demonstrated consideration for safety during your work
Excellent interpersonal skills, team-oriented, and suited to work as part of a multi-disciplinary team
A driver’s license and ability to provide a clean, 3 year driving abstract
Interest and knowledge of other biophysical study areas, baseline studies, and monitoring programs for wetlands , soils, rare plants, weeds, and/or wildlife
Basic knowledge with the Federal Fisheries Act, and other relevant provincial and federal environmental legislation in western Canada
Hold or be working toward a Professional Designation under the BC College of Applied Biology and/or the Alberta Society of Professional Biologists
Valid Electro-fishing certificate approved by Worksafe BC
Demonstrated quality data collection skills
Experience traversing and/or working in remote areas in various terrain and weather conditions

We value collaboration and believe that in-person interactions are crucial for both our culture and client delivery.
