Hi all,
The NFF is hiring two new Colorado River Watershed Coordinators to develop and implement projects in CO, WY, AZ, and NM. The Rocky Mountain position will be based (remotely) in Colorado.
- Colorado River Watershed Project Coordinator – Rocky Mountain Region – The Colorado River Watershed Project Coordinator, Rocky Mountain Region, will report directly to NFF’s Director of Conservation Finance and Natural Climate Solutions and work closely with the Rocky Mountain Region Director and field staff across Colorado. The incumbent is responsible for developing and implementing wetland and watershed health projects and programs with the U.S. Forest Service, other federal and state agencies, communities, conservation NGOs, and private sector partners to support the NFF’s new low-tech process-based restoration (LTPBR) program in the Colorado River Watershed. Through the new LTPBR program, the Coordinator will be expected to advance an ambitious scope of work to help restore the headwaters of the Colorado River Basin, the majority of which are located on National Forest System lands. The location for this position is in Colorado. Applicants must be able to travel regularly throughout Colorado and Wyoming. This position is a remote/work-from-home position and requires reliable internet access.
