Bat Technician Needed -- May 30 through mid-August, 2017, Clemson, SC

Duties: We will be collecting data on roost ecology of rare and threatened bat species on the Andrew Pickens Ranger District of the Sumter National Forest, Oconee County, SC.

The position is through Clemson University but the technician will work closely with personnel in the USFS, Southern Research Station.

Qualifications: The applicant will be required to work irregular hours depending on weather, the number of bats with radio-tags, and other factors. The applicant must be able to work in all types of weather ranging from hot and humid to cool and damp and be able to walk long distances over steep terrain. Previous bat handling and radio-tracking experience is preferred. The applicant must have a valid driver’s license and clean driving record.

Salary: $11.50/hr.
