Job Postings

Hey guys!  I wanted to pass on a few opportunities the Missoula BLM has for archaeology positions.  We are looking to fill two GS9 permanent lateral transfers and one GS11 Temp promotion detail.  It’s been an amazing time for growth and we are expanding to meet those needs.  If you or anyone you know are interested, please get in touch with me or Michael Albritton (AFM).  See attached descriptions.

Thank you!
