POSITION SUMMARY

Assists in overseeing and coordinating laboratory and/or field operations, assists in planning and designing experiments, conducts experiments and analyzes resultant data in order to participate in conducting research projects.

The mission of the Michigan Natural Features Inventory (MNFI) is to guide the conservation of Michigan’s biodiversity by providing the highest quality scientific expertise and information. MNFI’s vision is to be the authoritative source of information on biodiversity that is widely used to conserve Michigan’s unique natural heritage for current and future generations.

As the Environmental Review Analyst, you will assist in the coordination and evaluation of projects seeking MNFI expertise and insight regarding impacts that may occur for permit applications, land management plans, and other local or statewide projects. The Environmental Review process flags potential impacts with state and federally protected species and high-quality natural communities. In this position, you will assist with field assessments for public and private projects. Field assessments include varied types of species-targeted field work and will be coordinated with additional MNFI staff as needed. Geospatial applications are a foundational aspect of MNFI work. You will be using Michigan’s Natural Heritage Database, GIS, and varied geospatial applications as tools for decision making. Additional duties may include field research, website maintenance or formatting, and creation of information products and reports, depending on skills and program needs.

In this role, you will screen projects seeking permits or impact assessments using Michigan’s Natural Heritage Database and other geospatial data layers. You will coordinate reviews with MNFI staff, experts, and agency personnel, maintain and refine applications and datasets, and communicate with applicants, experts, and agencies regarding reviews and updates. You will assist with the development and deployment of the NatureServe Environmental Review Tool and maintenance and expansion of Michigan’s Natural Heritage Database, including implementation of quality control procedures to ensure records meet Natural Heritage standards. You will conduct field surveys and research on rare and declining species and natural communities, as well as collect, analyze, and disseminate ecological information. You will also recruit, train, and direct seasonal staff. It will be important that you develop and maintain good professional relationships, promoting positive public relations for MSU Extension, the Community, Food, and Environment Institute, and the Michigan Natural Features Inventory.

The Environmental Review Analyst will be based in the MNFI MSU Extension office located in downtown Lansing, MI.

This position may be eligible to utilize a flexible work environment; however, there is an expectation to work from the MNFI office in Lansing. The needs, responsibilities, and opportunities of an individual’s position and office location drive the ability and amount of work-location flexibility.

This is a full-time, end-dated appointment, renewable annually based upon continued funding.

CHARACTERISTIC DUTIES/RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Assists in coordinating research and laboratory and/or field operations in order to meet research goals.
