Lead Archaeologist
(Permit Holder or Experienced Field Director)
Core is a well-established and rapidly-growing company providing archaeological and heritage consulting services throughout BC’s Kootenays. We have an established and growing book of clients, including municipalities, provincial and federal infrastructure developers, foresters, miners, and private land developers. We are privileged to live, work, and play within the shared traditional territories of the Ktunaxa and Secwepmc Nations.
To keep up our high level of service and to grow our capacity, we need help! Our ideal human is an experienced Interior Plateau (IP) Permit-Holding Archaeologist, but we recognize that we’ll have better luck hiring a unicorn, so if you’re an experienced Field Director that’s close to permit holding eligibility, we’d love to talk to you. This is a permanent full-time position starting immediately. You won’t find a long list of duties here because you’re experienced! You know what’s involved, but you will be expected to take ownership of your projects, and ensure a high level of delivery from start to finish.
Why you want to work here:
-
A jaw-droppingly beautiful work environment (the stops to soak up the views are built into our project timelines).
-
Work/life balance - The Kootenays are an outdoorsy person’s dream, and with no extended camp shifts, you’ll have time to enjoy your hobbies and get that dog you always wanted.
-
The chance to learn more about mountain geomorphology than you ever thought you needed.
-
Flexible small-company culture (but yes, there’s still just as much safety paperwork).
Position Location: Cranbrook or Invermere, BC
We want you because you have:
-
Minimum 1 years Field Director status in the Interior Plateau region of BC (preference will be given to existing permit holding status).
-
Minimum Bachelor’s degree in archaeology or anthropology.
-
5+ years of archaeological field work experience with at least two years as crew lead.
-
Excellent communication skills (interpersonal, verbal, technical and non-technical writing).
-
Strong computer and technology skills (Microsoft 365 suite and field technology).
-
Valid Class 5 Driver’s Licence.
-
Canadian Citizenship or Permanent Residency.
-
Curiosity and questions (Bring them on!).
We REALLY want you if you have:
-
Field Director and/or permit holding status in other regions of BC.
-
Valid First Aid (OFA 1 or above), Bear Aware, ATV/UTV training, or other applicable workplace training.
-
Experience working in rugged mountain environments.
Why you REALLY want to work here:
-
Core offers well above industry average wages, commensurate with qualifications.
-
Professional development opportunities and support.
-
Profit-sharing opportunities for those who can attract and serve new business.
