Vacancy Announcement

Watercraft Inspector

Part-time / Full-time / Seasonal

Assigned to Pennington Conservation District

OVERVIEW:

If you’re looking for a hands-on, outdoor position that plays a key role in protecting the Black Hills’ lakes and reservoirs, consider joining the Pennington Conservation District (PCD) as a Watercraft Inspector. Our mission is to promote responsible stewardship of our natural resources, and this position is on the front line of preventing the spread of aquatic invasive species—especially zebra mussels—through watercraft inspections and decontaminations.

Watercraft Inspectors work at reservoirs throughout the Black Hills, interact with the recreating public, and help ensure these waters remain clean and accessible for future generations. We’re seeking dependable, self-motivated individuals who are comfortable working outdoors in all weather conditions, enjoy working with people, and are committed to conservation. This position requires strong attention to detail, the ability to work independently and as part of a team, and weekend and holiday availability as stations operate seven days per week.

A high school diploma or GED and a valid driver’s license are required. Successful completion of a mandatory drug screening and background check is required.

$17.00/hour + $0.51 per mile (approved travel)
