Connexa Group (formerly CORE Geomatics) is a multi-service firm offering integrated geomatics, environmental and land use planning services. We believe the most valuable asset an organization has is its people. Our team members are dynamic, energetic, entrepreneurial and creative, but most importantly, they are the company. We lead the industry by adopting new technology and finding creative solutions that improve efficiency and allow for a flexible work environment. Whether your career with Connexa is in the field or the office, you'll find we adapt to the ever-changing workplace.

We're looking for an intermediate to senior Environmental Monitor / Coordinator in the Lower Mainland, BC to help build and grow our environmental work in British Columbia. This is a strategic role for an established professional who works well independently, enjoys building client relationships and wants to help shape a growing team with an creative, forward-thinking company.

Pay: $90,000–$105,000 per year

The Work:

This is a hybrid role, about 60% working from a home office and 40% in the field. You'll:

- Help grow Connexa's environmental presence in the Lower Mainland, working closely with our Sales Team to build client relationships and win new work
- Coordinate and deliver environmental monitoring on multi-disciplinary construction, mining, hydro and pipeline projects
- Lead monitoring on active construction sites, working directly with contractors and client representatives to make sure work complies with BC permits, approvals and environmental protection plans
- Work as a Resource Specialist on biophysical assessments, wildlife surveys, water quality and fisheries work, and act as Field Lead on these assignments




- Mentor junior environmental staff and help them build their monitoring, assessment and reporting skills
- Work with Connexa team members, client field representatives, contractors and regulators, and explain monitoring findings and compliance issues clearly to non-technical audiences
- Prepare monitoring reports and correspondence for client and regulatory review
- Complete office reporting, QA/QC, data entry and timely submission of field data
- Attend meetings and training sessions as needed
- Support recruitment and onboarding of new team members as the BC team grows

Technical strengths:

You'll have intermediate to senior-level expertise in one or more of these areas, and working knowledge across most:

- Environmental monitoring and construction inspection
- Regulatory compliance monitoring (e.g., Environmental Protection Plan implementation)
- Erosion and sediment control
- Soil sampling (baseline and contaminated)
- Air quality
- Wildlife sweeps (year-round identification of dens, nests, mineral licks and other key features)
- Water quality monitoring (turbidity)
- Fish salvage and habitat assessment
- Pipeline HDD monitoring

Field schedule and conditions:

- Field work is mostly in the Lower Mainland. While we build our BC client base, you'll also travel to existing projects in Alberta and BC




- Field shifts are typically 2–10 days, with longer shifts possible, and include overnight stays in hotels or camps
- Work in remote locations and challenging conditions, including muddy roads, steep terrain, dense vegetation and snow
- Walk extended distances and carry field equipment, such as soil sampling tools, weighing up to 30 lb
- Drive light-duty trucks, ATVs, UTVs and trailers
- Use navigation and data collection tools such as Garmin GPS, Avenza, Collector and similar platforms

What you bring to the table:

- A diploma or bachelor's degree in conservation biology, land reclamation, environmental science, natural resource management, forestry or a related field
- 7–9+ years of relevant experience, including work in BC
- A BC professional designation (e.g., RPBio or P.Ag.) that qualifies you as a Qualified Environmental Professional (QEP), or clear eligibility to obtain one
- Experience acting as a Field Lead and working independently
- Established relationships with clients, contractors or regulators in the Lower Mainland are a strong asset
- Experience supporting business development, proposals or client growth is an asset
- Experience with BC permitting and assessments (e.g., Water Sustainability Act changes in and about a stream, Riparian Areas Protection Regulation assessments) is an asset
- Intermediate to advanced reporting skills
- A track record of mentoring and guiding junior staff
- Confidence making sound in-field decisions independently
- A valid driver's licence
- Electrofishing certification is an asset
- A love for being on the road and working in both natural and construction environments
