Company Profile
Oklahoma Forestry Services
Company Overview
Our mission is to conserve, enhance and protect Oklahoma's forest resources for present and future generations.
Oklahoma Forestry Services consists of a relatively small team of professional foresters, firefighters/rangers and support staff. The organization’s size provides foresters with a variety of work experiences, the opportunity to assist with other operations, and a diversity of special projects.
Company History
Created in April 1925, our agency has adapted over the years to Oklahoma's changing demands expected from high quality forested lands.
Benefits
OFS offers a competitive compensation package for new hires. Included with salary are options for health and dental insurance for the employee and their family largely paid by a generous benefit allowance. Retirement benefits are diverse and give employees control of their financial future. The entire compensation package for newly hired Forester III can range from $65,000 to $75,000 per year depending on options chosen. New employees are provided ten paid holidays; three weeks each of paid annual and sick leave; comp and flex time; and longevity pay. Sick leave accumulates and annual leave increases with years of service.
Freedom and flexibility are two words our foresters frequently use to describe some of the intangible benefits of working for OFS. Of course, with that freedom comes responsibility. We are looking for hard-working, self-motivated folks with good communications skills who aren’t afraid of getting dirty and can thrive in our service–oriented agency.
