Recruitment #2024-1-7410
Full-time, Permanent, Represented position
Location: Northeast Region-Deer Park, WA<\/strong>
Salary:\u00a0$4,174.00 – $5,615.00 Monthly\u00a0<\/strong>

Review of applications is ongoing.\u00a0<\/strong>We reserve the right to make a hiring decision or close this recruitment at any time after 2\/1\/24. It is in your best interest to submit materials as soon as possible.

Want to join something GREAT and make a difference?<\/strong>
The Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Northeast Region is looking to fill a\u00a0Service Forester (NRS2)\u00a0<\/strong>position in Spokane County. We are looking for an individual who is a proven team player, has experience in forestry, forest health, and fire suppression, and displays an effective form of leadership to deliver program goals to local landowners.

The local work unit is dominated by pine stands in desperate need of treatments to promote forest health, reduce fuel loading, and protect structures. Since 2020, hundreds of people have purchased open lands within the work unit in hopes of building their dream houses, and often these places are overrun with pine thickets and overcrowded forests in poor health. This position will help to support the private landowners in protecting their dreams and the surrounding communities. Thousands of existing homes and properties are losing the battle every year trying to manage the forest that never stops growing. The Service Forester\u2019s decisions on timber and biomass management are very important and can certainly put a property on a better trajectory of good forest health which is a cornerstone goal of the program.

The Service Forester position will report to the Sr. Service Forester (NRS3) and will require the ability to foster positive working relationships amongst the other Service Foresters in the county and region, while also interacting with the general public, contractors, fire districts, and other state, local, county and federal agencies on a routine basis. This position will require the successful candidate to exercise their knowledge of forestry, forest health, fire behavior, structural protection, agreement negotiation, and communication skills. \u00a0By performing these actions effectively, efficiently, and professionally, the Service Forester supports the DNR in fulfilling its mission of providing innovative leadership and expertise to ensure environmental protection, community safety, and a rich quality of life for current and future generations.\n
