  • Compensation: Hourly wage of $15.00/hour, although scheduled overtime will result in average gross earnings of approximately $3,260/month. Housing will be provided while on island (trailer/bunkhouse; no pets allowed). No off-island housing is provided. Flights on and off island via a twin-engine aircraft are provided at no cost.
