Project Location & Requirements
This position is based at the Pleasant Camp Border Crossing in the Stikine Region of Northern British Columbia, on the Alaska border. Due to the remote nature of the project, the successful candidate should be prepared to live on-site, at a nearby campsite, or in cabin accommodations for the duration of the project.
A valid passport is considered a strong asset, as occasional travel to Alaska may be required to source materials and support project operations. Please note that the nearest Canadian community is approximately four hours away, so candidates should be comfortable working in a remote location.
Because this is a federal project, the successful candidate must be able to obtain the required security clearance prior to accessing the site. This includes:
- Successfully completing an RCMP Criminal Record Check through fingerprint scanning.
- Providing a five-year residential history as part of the federal site access clearance process.
