Our Organization and Mission:

The Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) is the state’s lead agency for environmental management and stewardship - protecting our air, water and land. The vision of DEP is to create strong community partnerships, safeguard Florida’s natural resources and enhance its ecosystem. 

 

The Work You Will Do:

The Division of State Lands, as Florida’s lead agency for environmental management and stewardship, serves as staff to the Board of Trustees of the Internal Improvement Trust Fund (Governor and Cabinet).  As such, the division’s role goes far beyond just acquiring lands for protection. It provides oversight for the management of activities on more than 12 million acres of public lands including lakes, rivers and islands. These public lands help ensure all Florida’s residents and visitors can truly appreciate the state’s unique landscapes.

 

The Difference You Will Make:

State-Owned Lands Inventory (SOLI) has three primary responsibilities:

• GIS mapping production services to the Governor and Cabinet for the Board of Trustees Land Document System (BTLDS), which functions as Florida’s title provider to the Board of Trustees.  SOLI has mapped 229,819 parcels described in 100,866 documents archived in BTLDS. These parcels form the basis of the FL-SOLARIS State Lands Inventory.

• Responsible for the development and operation of the legislatively mandated Florida State Owned Lands and Records Information System (FL-SOLARIS). This system serves as the State’s repository of state-owned lands and facilities inventory data and has become a valuable resource for the effective management of over 20,000 facilities records of more than 21,000 facilities and over 53,000 land records of more than 71,000 state-owned land parcel records for state agencies, legislators, Cabinet offices and the public.

• Responsible for the development and management of the legislatively mandated enterprise systems such as the Land Management Plan module (LMP), Conservation Land Easement and Recreation (CLEAR), Submerged and Uplands Revenue Systems (SUPRS), the Acquisition Process Information System (APIS) and the Board of Trustees Land Document System (BTLDS). SOLI is challenged to keep all systems up and running while staying abreast of new technologies.

 

How You Will Grow:

DEP encourages its leaders to constantly innovate and seek efficiencies. We believe in supporting and encouraging you as you take on important and often complex projects while offering you the opportunity to gain valuable experience quickly.

 

Where You Will Work:

Tallahassee - Tallahassee, Florida’s Capital City, lined with rolling hills, oak trees, and canopied roads combines old world charm with a modern pace of life. Home to two major universities as well as state government, Tallahassee is a mid-sized city in the heart of Florida’s Big Bend. Tallahassee is a highly desirable location for both those seeking their first job or those ready to enter the next exciting chapter in their career.
