Chief Operating Officer

The American Chestnut Foundation

Position Title: Chief Operating Officer

Location: Hybrid Remote in Asheville, NC -- some travel required

The American Chestnut Foundation (TACF) is a nonprofit conservation, education, and scientific organization with one of the most ambitious rescue missions in the natural world: return the iconic American chestnut to its native range. Founded in 1983 and based in Asheville, NC, TACF and its 16 state chapters are working to restore the American chestnut tree to eastern forests.

Our Mission: to return the iconic American chestnut to its native range

Our Vision: a robust eastern forest returned to its splendor

TACF’s Values : Optimism, Patience, Science-Based Decisions, Integrity, Innovation, and Collaboration

TACF is seeking a Chief Operating Officer to serve as a senior operational leader and strategic partner as we continue scaling our national restoration work. This role is about building the systems, clarity, and organizational capacity that allow our science, restoration, chapter, fundraising, and outreach teams to do their best work in service of bringing the American chestnut back to our forests.

The Chief Operating Officer (COO) serves as TACF’s senior operational leader and strategic partner to the President & CEO, overseeing the organizational systems, infrastructure, governance, and operational coordination necessary to advance TACF’s national restoration mission.

As TACF scales its restoration, research, and chapter engagement efforts across a distributed national network, the COO ensures the organization operates with clarity, accountability, continuity, and operational excellence. The COO translates organizational strategy into functional systems and execution across administrative operations, governance, human resources, technology, compliance, chapter operations support, and organizational planning.
