The Illinois Department of Natural Resources is seeking to hire a Site Superintendent II for the Office of Land Management at Sam Parr State Fish and Wild Life Area. This position will serve as full line supervisor and adjust first level grievances, effectively recommend and impose discipline up to and including discharge; monitor and implement site security/safety programs to ensure compliance with applicable laws, rules, and regulations; assist with turf maintenance; complete site operations and financial records and reports; exercise budgetary controls to ensure fiscal integrity; and review, analyze, and incorporate proposals of natural and cultural resource specialists and others concerning short/long range plans for site management. For several decades the residents of Jasper County worked for a state park, assisted and encouraged by a former resident and conservationist, Sam Parr. In 1960, 72 acres of land approximately 3 miles northeast of Newton were acquired by the Department of Natural Resources and the Jasper County Conservation Area became a reality. Additional acquisitions have brought the total acreage to 1,180, including a 183-acre lake. After the death of Sam Parr in 1966, the General Assembly changed the name from Jasper County to Sam Parr. The site was formally dedicated on May 12, 1972. We welcome all qualified and interested applicants who would like to be part of this team to apply today. Essential Functions
