Conservation Lands Steward

SUMMARY: The Lands Steward is a versatile, field‑based position that spends most days outdoors (approximately 65%) completing trail maintenance, infrastructure improvements, habitat projects, and monitoring assignments across NH Audubon’s 40 Wildlife Sanctuaries. The role requires regular travel statewide (using an NH Audubon truck when available), occasional overnight camping—primarily in the Monadnock and White Mountains regions—and frequent engagement with volunteers and visitors. 

The Steward is NH Audubon’s primary coordinator for volunteer workdays, trainings, and regional stewardship events. This includes communicating directly with volunteers, leading on‑site project work, supporting independent volunteer groups, and helping build a welcoming, mission‑driven volunteer culture. Office time (approximately 35%) includes planning and coordinating volunteer events, maintaining tools and equipment, preparing maps and monitoring materials, documenting fieldwork, and communicating with landowners, volunteers, and other stakeholders. 

The successful candidate will bring strong interpersonal skills, a positive attitude, a willingness to learn, and the confidence to represent NH Audubon professionally in the field.
