Join our team to deliver Environmental STEM Education programs throughout the Houston-Galveston region! The Galveston Bay Foundation (GBF) is a nonprofit organization that has worked for 38 years to preserve and enhance one of the world’s most productive estuaries—Galveston Bay—as a healthy and productive place for generations to come. We have diverse programs in land preservation, habitat restoration, water quality and quantity, youth education, and advocacy.

Summary

GBF seeks part-time Environmental Educators to assist our Environmental Education Team in delivering Environmental STEM Education programs throughout the Houston-Galveston region during the 2025-2026 school year. GBF’s Environmental STEM Education programs provide classroom and place-based educational experiences focused on Galveston Bay to over 15,000 students and teachers each year. The objectives of the programs are to instill knowledge and appreciation of the Galveston Bay ecosystem, inspire participants to break down barriers and open themselves to new experiences, and empower students to become life-long advocates for a resilient Galveston Bay.

The selected applicant(s) can expect to work 8-30 hours a week, depending on the time of year, in a variety of environments (classroom, field, or office). They will assist with the preparation of and implementation of education programs, conduct data entry, and must be able to work up to 10 hours on some dates, depending on the scheduled event. Educators will be trained in first aid, driving with a trailer, child abuse awareness, field safety, classroom and group management, as well as specific activities and lessons for education programs.

*Educators can expect to work during the work week (Tuesday-Friday) with occasional Mondays and weekends (a few times a year) for a full-day (7-9 hours). We do not have the need for part-time educators that can only work a few hours a day.
