Job Responsibilities

The Restoration Technician, under the supervision of the Stewardship and Restoration Director, will work independently to remove invasive plants from the coastal dunes of the Humboldt Coastal Nature Center property. Technicians will identify and remove a variety of invasive species from the dunes, including yellow bush lupine, European beachgrass, and invasive annual grasses, among other non-native species. The Restoration Technician will also be responsible for monitoring project progress through mapping and data entry, and will conduct periodic vegetation and photographic surveys of the project site alongside the Stewardship Director and Restoration Manager.
The Restoration Technician is a physically demanding outdoor position that includes manually removing invasive plants from the dune ecosystem and at times transporting the removed plants from the work site to a disposal site. Public transportation to the work site is extremely limited. Personal transportation to and from the Humboldt Coastal Nature Center is critical for this position.
