Founded in 1936, the National Wildlife Federation (NWF or Federation) is America's largest and most trusted grassroots conservation organization with 53 state/territorial affiliates and more than six million members and supporters, including hunters, anglers, gardeners, birders, hikers, campers, paddlers, and outdoor enthusiasts of all stripes. The Federation's mission is to unite all Americans to ensure wildlife thrive in our rapidly changing world through programming focused on conserving wildlife, restoring habitats and waterways, expanding outdoor opportunities, connecting children with nature, and addressing the causes and consequences of climate change.
As a Wildlife Project Coordinator, you will work in collaboration with regional NWF staff, project partners (e.g., The Nature Conservancy, Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks, the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service), landowners, and others to implement a Southwest Montana project exploring and implementing approaches to mitigate impacts of fencing on wildlife movement.
Fencing is a nearly ubiquitous feature on the landscape but little is known or considered regarding its effects to wildlife. Fence location, density and type are all factors that have consequences on multiple species and as such, innovative and scientifically-proven fence designs are needed to account for multi-species use. In concert, fence designs must continue to sustain their overall objective in keeping livestock in appropriate pastures. The Wildlife Project Coordinator will be expected to work collaboratively to build support for and implement cost-effective solutions for fencing issues, which the project team believes provides a ‘win-win’ approach for both landowners and wildlife.
This position is based in Southwest Montana with (a minimum of) two study sites (Horse Prairie area and the Big Hole Valley). This is a temporary, full-time assignment expected to last one year. Applicants will need to begin work March 1, 2021 and, as a result, acceptance of applications closes February 1, 2021.
In this role you will:
Evaluate, coordinate and oversee ongoing fence mitigation projects with the project team

You will manage budgets, people and logistics to complete fence modification and/or removal projects, which include coordinating parties involved, funding sources, contracts, volunteers, materials, site logistics, inspection, monitoring, and report writing.
Expand, identify and work with key stakeholders
You will work closely with FWP biologists and landowners to identify opportunities based on wildlife movement data and field observations and assess their needs for fence accommodation, coordinate on-the-ground efforts with all stakeholders so that implementation can be targeted/prioritized based on wildlife needs, and assist with on-the-ground projects and monitoring where applicable. Where needed, and coordinating with parties involved, you will track and account for volunteers, materials, site logistics, inspection, monitoring, and create reports (including reports required by funders).
Maintain and stay abreast of ongoing relevant science and mapping needs
In order to fill gaps in our understanding of this evolving field of study and ensure our work is based on the best available science, you may monitor and contribute to ongoing relevant mapping research where applicable and as responsibilities allow, as well as explore additional opportunities in close collaboration and communication with partners.
Review and present findings as applicable to future projects
You will review and discuss findings and conclusions with the project team, including technical, programmatic and biology staff, prior to finalizing any evaluation or determination of projects.

Fundraise and look for opportunities to expand the work
You will work with NWF staff and coordinate with state, federal and NGO’s stakeholders to find and apply for funding sources to support fence mitigation projects.

A current state driver’s license and vehicle with current insurance.
Preferred Qualifications:
Undergraduate degree; graduate-level studies or at least 3 years equivalent ecological/wildlife field experience.

Strong analytic and communication skills, both oral and written.
Ability to present technical information to diverse audiences, and a demonstrated interest and/or experience communicating about projects in rural communities and with state, federal and NGO partners.
Provide education and outreach opportunities when applicable.

RepresentUs is a carefully curated mix of seasoned political campaigners, policy wonks, advertising experts, designers, and engineers. We're not a startup, but we've got startup DNA: we're nimble, constantly learning and iterating, and we push ourselves to push the envelope—to ignore "industry standards" and set a new standard.

That's why we're an Equal Opportunity Employer; people of color, women, people with disabilities, and LGBTQ candidates are strongly encouraged to apply.
