As a Natural Resource Specialist within the Division of Resources Services, Branch of Assessment and Monitoring, you will assist BLM in conducting natural resources assessments and special projects, responsible for complex geospatial analyses of habitat and BLM resources and their interaction.  Your duties will include:
1.       Formulate, plan, and implement national high profile strategies, consistent with all applicable laws, regulations, and policy, and feasible for analysis, that assess regional habitat and ecological conditions, and recommend regional strategies addressing conservation, restoration, and adaptation of critical natural resource values.
2.       Implement strategies to evaluate landscape or regional natural resource values such as native fish, wildlife, or plants of conservation concern, terrestrial ecosystem functions and services, aquatic ecosystem functions and services, and ecosystem-dependent aesthetic, recreation and ecotourism values.
3.       Implement strategies for evaluation of regional change agents including wildland fire, invasive species, energy development, and climate change.
4.       Serve as the Division's first point of contact for questions, concerns, and overall implementation of applicable fish, wildlife, and plant conservation objectives from land use plans with other landscape level efforts between affected offices.
5.       Maintain communication linkages between States in order to keep all affected managers apprised of national strategies and to assure BLM authorized actions are implemented consistently in accordance with the national direction.
6.       Integrate natural resource assessments into BLM public land management by assisting the Washington Office in developing policies and procedures to determine how they may integrate into BLM public land management in a beneficial manner.
7.       Develop working relationships with, and coordinate between external entries that include multiple cooperating agencies at the State and Federal levels, interest groups, and individuals who are participating in the management of fish, wildlife and plants on BLM managed lands.
