Now Accepting Applications for the 2026 & 2027 Bird Deterrent Seasons (relocation to Fort McMurray required):

Acden Aves is seeking dedicated Bird & Wildlife Biologists to join our bird monitoring and deterrent program at Suncor Base Plant in Fort McMurray. This position requires relocation to Fort McMurray.

  • A degree in biology, animal/veterinary sciences, environmental sciences, or a related field;
  • A valid class 5 driver’s license in good standing.
  • A strong passion for birds and wildlife.
  • A love for working outdoors in a physically demanding job.
  • The ability to comfortably work on or around waterbodies and operate small watercraft.
  • Experience driving trucks or off road vehicles.

Candidates must also be comfortable with:

  • Preparing data and reports for clients and regulatory officials.

Wildlife Duties:

  • Identifying bird species using morphological traits and field markings;
  • Handling birds and wildlife in various conditions; and
  • Hazing birds and wildlife based on species, physical condition, and behaviour.

While this is a seasonal contract (approximately February to November), there will be opportunities for year-round employment, including wildlife sweeps and maintenance work during the winter months.

Acden Aves is an equitable opportunity employer. We reserve the right to hire outside of the prerequisites as the job requires or as the company sees fit.
