We support Albertans in being proud stewards of air, land, water, and biodiversity by leading the work required for the desired environmental outcomes and sustainable development of natural resources.

Role Responsibilities

The Field Technician role is a seasonal wage opportunity within Alberta’s Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) surveillance program. The CWD Field Technician distributes remote freezers to local vendors across Alberta and then collects heads of hunter-killed deer from the freezers. They then manage and deliver the heads to the lab for testing.

The major responsibilities of a CWD Field Technician include:

Initial Program Setup: delivering and setting up collection freezers at various vendor locations, contacting road maintenance contractors, distributing CWD program information.

Monitoring Freezers: collecting, verifying species, sex and age from collected samples, providing initial field data record for all samples collected; collecting samples from road killed deer; and timely head collection from freezers.

Sample Delivery: photocopying green CWD tags, delivering tags and samples to testing labs (Edmonton, Airdrie, and Lethbridge).

Program Shut Down: Retrieving, cleaning, and properly storing freezers; completing inventory check list.

Challenges in this position include long periods of driving (at times in inclement weather), organizing, tracking, and delivering large numbers of heavy frozen incoming heads, and being efficient while responsive to unanticipated aspects of winter field activities.

This position will also require working a modified work week to accommodate weekend hunting.
