A range manager is responsible for overseeing large tracts of land called rangelands. Range managers are also sometimes referred to as range conservationists or range scientists. As part of your job duties as a range manager, you work with local farmers and landowners with stakes on or adjacent to these rangelands. Your goal is to ensure productive, sustainable use of the rangelands, as well as to find ways to preserve trees, plants, wetlands, and other natural resources. You spend much of your time working outdoors, surveying rangelands, monitoring rehabilitation efforts, and ensuring appropriate land use.
