What Jobs are Available in the Timber Industry?
Although the landscape of logging has changed drastically over the years, a number of the same jobs still exist in the timber industry today as they did more than a hundred years ago. At the same time, a wide range of new jobs have been created to help support the modern timber industry. These range from analytic jobs that focus on computers of GPS mapping, to environmental jobs that look at saving and preserving habitat for endangered species or taking care of watersheds, to helping to handle the bureaucracy that exists now and did not historically.
