Environmental Field Technician

When working for companies that specialize in decontaminating soil and groundwater, the Field Technician may be supervising the team that cleans up environmental messes such as oil and gas spills.

Environmental Programs Coordinator

Do you like the idea of working towards environmentally sustainable agriculture? Operating within the frameworks of provincial government bodies, an Environmental Programs Coordinator works with a province-wide team of program extension specialists to gather, examine, understand, and report on information related to the environment and the agriculture industry. An Environmental Programs Coordinator communicates ideas and recommendations through extension programs, workshops, newsletter articles, and presentations. At the same time, collecting feedback through those communications tools is very important, too. Environmental Programs Coordinators will have opportunities for networking with government staff and industry groups, professional development and to be part of their department's commitment to high performance, teamwork and quality service.

An ideal Environmental Programs Coordinator should be a university graduate in Agriculture or related degree area, and would possess a good knowledge of the province's agriculture industry and the environmental issues facing it. Of course, any knowledge of environmental issues related to farm management is an asset. Because of the importance of communications in this role, a good Environmental Programs Coordinator should demonstrate attention to detail and have excellent written and oral communication skills.
