Founded in 1967, the Wilderness Workshop has earned a national reputation for passionate, strategic advocacy, effective grassroots activism, and scientific authority. WW is the only nonprofit organization that’s devoted to protecting these particular public lands on a full-time basis. No other local group has the mission, capacity expertise, and standing to participate effectively and consistently in the arcane bureaucratic processes that decide the fate of these lands; no state or national organization devotes as much time to our particular area.

The Conservation Director is also responsible for ensuring policy consistency in WW’s Community Programs including our Hike series, Restoration Program, Naturalists Nights and Wilderness Monitoring programs.  Lastly, the Conservation Director develops strong relationships with County Commissioners, colleagues at partner organizations, grassroots activists, and staff at the U.S. Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, and Congressional offices.   Working at the Wilderness Workshop and Living in Carbondale The Wilderness Workshop offers its staff a close-knit, relatively casual work environment that is focused on results and impact.  We are passionate about our work, creative, and like to work collaboratively with the team and our partners.  Successful members of the team are self-starters, life-long learners, interested in building new skills, active listeners, and like the nimbleness that comes from a smaller organization that can act quickly to take advantage of new opportunities. The Roaring Fork Valley stretches from the top of Independence Pass, through Aspen and Carbondale to the confluence with the Colorado River at Glenwood Springs.  The breadth and depth of recreational and cultural amenities found in this community are second to none.  Multiple wilderness areas, ski areas, world class biking and running trails, and nationally recognized art and cultural institutions are all found in the Valley.   This is What it Takes to Do the Job Qualified candidates will have a deep passion for and connection with public lands and wilderness.  Additionally, candidates will have experience and/or skills in these areas: Leadership Management-level experience in leading internal functions or large projects for independent organizations or government agencies.
