The Vermont Conservation Voters (VCV), in partnership with the Vermont Natural Resources Council (VNRC), has an exciting opportunity for an outgoing person who wants to have a significant impact on the future of Vermont.
We are looking for a motivated person to help advance policy initiatives related to protecting Vermont’s natural resources, the health of Vermonters, and combatting climate change. The position will also help VCV’s efforts to elect environmental champions to the Vermont legislature and statewide offices.
Job responsibilities include educating the public on our environmental campaigns, building the support we need to advance a pro-climate, pro-environment policy agenda, and elect environmental and climate champions to public office. The successful candidate will be self-directed and have good writing skills; be able to communicate effectively with a variety of audiences, including members and activists; be able to work collaboratively in a busy office environment; have experience in social media; and be committed to working on behalf of Vermont’s citizens, environment and communities. Political campaign experience is a significant plus.
Applicants should have a B.A. or B.S. in a relevant field (although pertinent life experience may be substituted for education) and, preferably, experience with an advocacy organization.
Starting salary is commensurate with experience. This position is full time.
