Our Team

MEET OUR TEAM

The Station is operated by a small team of staff and a volunteer Board of Directors. We have two year-round staff members: our Station Manager and our part-time Communications Manager. During the field season our team expands to include an Assistant Manager, Cook Staff and other support personnel.

CURRENT OPENINGS:

Research Assistants are hired through project supervisors, not directly through the Station.

Board of Directors

The AWRS Board of Directors is comprised of volunteers who are leaders in education, natural sciences and finance, and who care deeply about the environment. They view science as integral to understanding and conserving the world around us, especially our home in Algonquin Provincial Park.
