Ian Reiman Marketing and Communications Specialist

How long have you been with PFS and what is your current role?

I started with PFS in 2022 as an Administrative Assistant and was in that role for four years before transitioning into my current role as Marketing and Communications specialist in 2026.

What does a typical day look like in your job?

Well, they are all a little different. The core of my work is communicating with AK seasonals on their deployment, doing expense reports, booking travel for researchers, helping with the weekly report, etc. But you might find me in the Littleton warehouse preparing shipments or even in the field from time to time!

What do you enjoy most about your work here?

Well obviously, the coworkers are great, but I also enjoy the variety of things I have been able to work on and learn during my time here.

What experience or education got you involved with PFS?

I previously worked for Antarctic Logistics and Expeditions doing cargo and fabrication in their warehouse. I ended up working 2 seasons on the ice for them at Union Glacier and South Pole as a Facilities Hand before moving into a new role as Sales and Content Specialist. I had been keeping an eye on the PFS job board when my wife and I moved out to Colorado and eventually an opportunity came up!

Do you have a favorite memory or project from your time with PFS? If so, can you tell us about it?

Getting into the field is always a real treat and I’ve been thrilled every time I’ve been asked to work on a field project. The one that stands out most to me is a project I got to work on in East Greenland decommissioning and removing an old seismic station. It was just myself and one other coworker staying in a remote hut and working in a gorgeous valley all day!
