In order to ensure timely and high-quality forest management and restoration, JSC “Latvia's State Forests” (LVM) announces an open tender for forest planting, young stand tending, agro-technical tending and restoration works in 2020-2024. Contractors with or without forestry experience are invited to take part in the tender. Tender proposals should be submitted in the electronic procurement system (EIS) by 11 October.
“We have noticed that the offer of forestry jobs seems attractive to both men and women. It is important that a person wishes to work and develop professionally. We are pleased that we have acquired reliable and knowledgeable partners in the regions of Latvia who apply for forestry works every year.
