| Job Description |
The Tofte Ranger District on the Superior will have two naturalist positions available for our Summer Resort Naturalist Program on the North Shore. The Resort Naturalist Program has been offering daytime hikes and evening campfire programs at resorts along Minnesota's North Shore since 1984. It is a cooperative program between the Superior National Forest Tofte Ranger District and the Cook County Visitor Bureau. Naturalists are hired as full-time seasonal Forest Service employees at a GS-4 level ($15.10 per hour in 2021, 2022 rate may see a 2.6% raise) and accrue both annual and sick leave. The term of employment is approximately from June 1 through August 31, with some degree of flexibility based on school needs. June 15 would be the latest start date possible, but that would reduce time to learn material before presenting. These positions are not internships; however, internships can often be arranged through your school if you are a student. Housing at the Forest Service compound in Tofte will probably be available. Job duties include presenting and aiding in the development of quality natural and cultural history programs, occasional additional public appearances, and support functions including preparation of presentation materials. Current driver's license required. The position requires evening and weekend work every week. As this is a public position, naturalists are required to wear uniforms and be positive representatives of the Forest Service. We are looking for candidates with experience in interpretation, education, or in the fields of natural or cultural history. As a naturalist, you will gain experience presenting to a wide cross section of people using a variety of program styles that could include campfires, hikes, car caravans, drop-ins, and tours. Depending on COVID related state mandates, in-person programming may be replaced with creating videos, signs, or other virtual programming experiences for visitors. You may apply online through www.usajobs.gov from November 5 - November 12, 2021, 11:59 pm EST. You can search for the position on USAJobs by using search terms: Park Ranger and duty station of Tofte MN or announcement number 22-TEMP3-R9-2687-4DT-SB.
We recommend a cover letter, although it is optional.
