DUTIES:
The Montana Bureau of Mines and Geology (MBMG) seeks a broadly-trained mapping geologist with expertise in Quaternary geology, neotectonics, or geologic hazards. Geologists with the desire and ability to conduct field-based surficial geologic mapping and with an interest in geologic hazard investigations within a seismically active region are encouraged to apply. Depending on qualifications, the individual will be hired as either an Assistant or Associate Geologist. Primary duties will be geologic mapping in collaboration with other geologists, interpretation of geologic data, and the timely publication of results. The successful candidate will also participate in applied geology projects conducted by the MBMG, working alone or as part of a team, to investigate geologic hazards, hydrogeology, or other related topics. Additional duties will include writing proposals, helping develop a geologic hazards program, and presenting research results at scientific meetings.
