Since 1905, a passion for birds and nature has been the driving force behind Audubon’s legacy. The organization has played a critical role in some of the most significant victories for birds and the environment, including: the establishment of the first National Wildlife Refuges; the banning of DDT in 1972; landmark legislation like the Clean Water and Clean Air Acts and the establishment of the federal Environmental Protection Agency. Audubon advocates broadly for conservation through science, policy, education and on-the-ground conservation action. Today’s Audubon is tackling the most pressing conservation challenges of our time. Audubon is a powerful distributed network with an unparalleled reach that includes more than one million members, 463 chapters, 22 state and regional offices (or field offices?) and 34 nature centers. In addition, Audubon works with dozens of international partnerships throughout the Western Hemisphere that also support protection of migratory birds and the habitats they need to thrive today, and in the future.

The Position The Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) is an independent national nonprofit organization founded 50 years ago by scientists and students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who sought to use the power of science to address global problems and improve people’s lives. Through technical analysis and effective advocacy, UCS works to develop and implement innovative, practical solutions to some of our planet’s most pressing problems—from combating global warming and developing sustainable ways to   feed ,   power , and   transport   ourselves, to fighting misinformation,   advancing racial equity , and reducing the threat of nuclear war. The Managing Director is a new position in the organization’s Food and Environment (F&E) Program.

This role is to ensure that the program strategy aligns with goals, and that its campaigns are executed in a manner that makes the best use of the team’s expertise and capacity. Responsibilities The position manages the day-to-day operations of the program. This includes the development and execution of program strategy and the core components of the program’s campaign – from analytical products to outreach and advocacy and leads the team in developing work that integrates a perspective of racial and economic justice into its approaches. The position engages in problem solving around relevant strategic questions, issues of substance, and matters of staff time prioritization and resource utilization. The Managing Director reports to the Program Director, represents UCS at public events and assists Program Director with fundraising responsibilities.
