About the Job

Bancroft Construction Services is seeking full-time experienced Field Biologist (GBM and/or DB) to support environmental compliance and construction monitoring for projects in and around Bakersfield, CA and Fresno County, CA. This role is ideal for a motivated biologist with strong SWAHA and BUOW experience who thrives in dynamic field environments and enjoys working collaboratively with construction and environmental teams.

This is a full-time position with consistent project work across multiple active job sites. Full-time status will be dependent on being approved for project by the project agency.

Position Summary

This field-based role involves conducting focused species surveys—with an emphasis on SWAHA and BUOW—monitoring construction activities, implementing avoidance and minimization measures, and documenting compliance with federal, state, and project-specific environmental permits. The position requires the ability to work independently in fast-paced outdoor and construction environments while coordinating closely with project teams.

Conduct focused surveys for special-status species, with a primary focus on SWAHA and BUOW
Perform nesting bird surveys and monitoring in accordance with regulatory requirements
Provide biological construction monitoring and environmental inspections
Conduct pre-construction surveys and ongoing compliance monitoring
Implement avoidance and minimization measures (WEAPs, ESAs, buffers, exclusion zones)
Monitor and maintain wildlife exclusion fencing
Collect and manage field data using GPS and mobile applications (e.g., ArcGIS Field Maps, Fulcrum)
Prepare accurate daily logs, reports, and compliance documentation
Coordinate directly with construction crews, project managers, and environmental staff

Ability to work outdoors in variable weather and terrain conditions
Strong attention to detail, organization, and communication skills
Flexible schedule, including early mornings, weekends, and potential travel
U.S. Citizenship required

Preferred Qualifications

DB or GBM authorization
Experience working on large-scale infrastructure or transportation projects
Familiarity with Central Valley and Inland Empire habitats and species
Experience working directly with contractors and leading compliance efforts

Work Environment

This position is field-intensive and may involve:

Long hours outdoors in varying weather conditions
Walking or hiking on uneven terrain while carrying field equipment
Working in active construction sites around heavy equipment
Regular travel to the Cantua Creek, CA area
