About the Role

The Company is seeking a President to lead its mission of land, water, and resource conservation. The successful candidate will be tasked with advancing the organization's goal of protecting additional acres and expanding its impact. This leadership role requires a focus on relationship-driven fundraising, strong financial oversight, and a collaborative approach to staff development. The President will work closely with a talented staff, an engaged board, and a broad coalition of partners to achieve the conservation and stewardship objectives. Executive-level experience in conservation, policy, law, or a related field is essential, with a preference for candidates with nonprofit management experience. The ideal candidate for the President position at the company will have a proven track record of clear communication, the ability to translate technical topics for diverse audiences, and a talent for partnering effectively with boards and external stakeholders. A genuine connection to nature and comfort in a hybrid work environment are also key attributes. The role is pivotal in supporting statewide efforts to conserve new acres and promote equity through education and partnerships. The President will be instrumental in driving the organization's strategic vision and ensuring its continued recognition for conservation excellence. A bachelor's degree is required, with an advanced degree being preferred, and a strong commitment to the mission of the organization is a must.
