NBNC is seeking a full-time Community Engagement Coordinator (CEC) to join our dynamic team of educators, naturalists, and administrators. We believe that all people deserve access to nature and nature education, and we are actively working to address the barriers that exist to making that a reality.

Summary

The CEC plays a central role in expanding NBNC’s relationships with the wide range of diverse communities that make up Central Vermont. Historically, NBNC has under-engaged Black, Indigenous, and People of Color, rural, immigrant, disabled, low-income, LGBTQIA+, and other communities and organizations, though we have made strides to expand our community in the past few years and have developed several new and successful programs and partnerships. The ideal candidate for this position has existing relationships with some of the communities above and is excited to build new relationships with other communities. 

Reporting to the Executive Director and working closely with members of the program and administrative teams, the CEC focuses on community engagement, program and partnership development, and access, equity, and inclusion in all our nature-based programs and organizational initiatives. The CEC deepens NBNC’s existing community partnerships and develops new collaborations locally and beyond. The majority of the CEC’s role is in the field and community, implementing programs and doing community outreach, with some  administrative work, in program development, design, communication, and marketing along the way.
