California BLM is recruiting for the permanent Field Manager position in the Arcata Field Office (AFO) located in California’s beautiful northern coast.  The office manages a collection of management units and wilderness areas that exceed 200,000 acres of public land across a variety of landscapes principally in Humboldt, Mendocino, and Trinity counties.  The office hosts an incredible staff who are highly productive, very knowledgeable, and work collaboratively both within the office as well as with numerous external partner groups.

The area has a rich presence and history of indigenous people, including but not limited to, the Wiyot, Yurok, Hupa, and Wailaki tribes.

Humboldt Bay is a vital aquatic resource for birds and wildlife, and supports waterfowl hunting, commercial fishing and oyster production.  It serves as a deep-water port.
