Senior Director / Director Habitat Preservation

The effective candidate will have the following skills:

Undergraduate degree in sustainability, sustainable finance, impact investing, environmental conservation and/or public policy with a graduate degree preferred.

Deep knowledge of environmental issues, especially those related to natural habitat/ecosystems/landscapes and climate resilience.

Exposure to the intersection of coastal development, stakeholders, and nature.

Grant writing experience or experience working with NGOs, membership-based bodies, or other civil society organizations where funding has had to be raised.

Experience leading teams through influence and working under tight timelines sometimes with little or no oversight or vague guidance.

Reporting and management of multiple relationships within an organization.

Project management, administration, financial management of programs or projects.

This position is a full-time position, onsite (e.g. in the area of the off-road or Corolla), with some flexibility for a hybrid arrangement to be agreed upon with the Board. It is more important that the staff be seen in the off road, within the county, and able to join meetings and discussions with key stakeholders than to be in the CWHF office.

The position will be $60,000 per year plus benefits with the opportunity for incentive sharing based on CWHF overall performance. After a six-month probationary period where specific staff deliverables are expected to be achieved, this position will be two years with the option for renewal.

The Outer Banks Chamber of Commerce is the area's largest business membership organization and serves Currituck County, Dare County and Ocracoke Island. Current membership is 1,100.
