Job description
Position Description:
Crew leaders manage and supervise conservation crews of five young adults, ages 19 and up, over the course of a 9-week session. Field Staff and AmeriCorps participants will work up to 40 hours a week; most schedules will be Monday through Friday; however, schedules may vary, while spending days off and evenings in camp. While in session, field staff will be responsible for completing a variety of conservation-oriented projects on public and private lands and implementing a highly structured camp experience, including facilitation of group meals, our outdoor education curriculum, and recreational trips. Crew leaders are well-balanced individuals who work hard and embody compassion, patience, and inspirational attitude. In many ways, our leaders teach our participants how to navigate a challenging work and social environment with grace and positivity. This seasonal position not only allows crew leaders to deliver an impactful, educational experience to young people in their communities, but can also provide an entry-point into the fields of natural resource management, youth development, and outdoor education.
