  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills, including experience preparing field reports, monitoring logs, and preconstruction survey documentation.
  • Willingness and flexibility to work extended hours (10-12+ hour days) and travel throughout LA and Orange Counties and occasionally California as project needs require.
  • Ability to hike 6-8 miles per day in challenging terrain and variable weather conditions while carrying up to 25lbs of equipment.

Nice To Have
  • Familiarity with local and regional ordinances, permitting processes, and regulations related to tree protection and biological resources
