Work beachside on the remote island of Andros in The Bahamas at Forfar Field Station! Join our non-profit as an Environmental Education Intern and spend your days guiding high school and college students through the island’s natural wonders—from marine biology and botany to ornithology, geology, oceanography, and ichthyology.

Environmental Education: IFS employees supplement the group leader's knowledge with local site information and topical lectures. The level of assistance with educational programming will vary according to the group leader’s expertise and experience. IFS employees should be prepared to act as naturalists with a general knowledge of all the terrestrial and marine ecosystems of Andros.

Trip Facilitation: IFS employees are expected to stay in close contact with the group leaders, transport groups to their desired sites, and monitor the group's safety while doing so.

Field Station Operations: There are daily, weekly, and monthly tasks to be completed to maintain the full operation of the field station. Each IFS employee will be involved in varying degrees with the daily tasks, such as interacting with the guests, working the Lodge, running errands, unloading shipments, communicating with the office in Columbus, Ohio, and other duties as necessary.

Maintenance: All employees participate in the maintenance and repair of the vehicles, boats, buildings, other equipment, landscaping, and other facilities tasks as needed.
