WHO WE ARE

As a science-based organization, we develop innovative, on-the-ground solutions to the world’s toughest environmental challenges so that people and nature can thrive. Our work is guided by our values, which include a commitment to diversity and respect for people, communities, and cultures.

One of TNC’s primary goals is to cultivate an inclusive work environment so that employees around the globe have a sense of belonging and feel that their unique contributions are valued. We know we’ll only achieve our mission by hiring and engaging a diverse staff that reflects the communities in which we work. Recognizing that people bring talent and skills that have been developed outside the scope of a job, we take a holistic approach to recruitment that considers life experience in addition to the professional requirements listed in our postings. Please apply – we’d love to hear from you. To quote a popular saying at TNC, “you’ll join for the mission, and you’ll stay for the people.”

WHAT WE CAN ACHIEVE TOGETHER


 

In January 2024, the New Hampshire Business Unit (BU) adopted a Strategic Alignment Plan that outlines six priority initiatives for delivering on our global 2030 Goals. These are our Climate Action, Cities of the Merrimack Watershed, Coastal Watershed, Appalachian Lands and Waters, Land Management and Stewardship initiatives, and Be Our Best, our internal initiative designed to build and sustain TNC in NH as a great place to work and to grow as a conservation leader.

The Strategic Initiatives Coordinator will play a critical role in helping The Nature Conservancy in New Hampshire meet our ambitious conservation mission by overseeing the Constituent Relationship Management (CRM) system for our Conservation Team, as well as providing administrative support to our Climate Action and Cities of the Merrimack Watershed Initiatives. This work may include organizing and attending internal and external meetings, maintaining and tracking files, as well as preparing for meetings, including research, preparing briefings for senior leadership, and coordinating logistics across the two Initiatives. The Coordinator will report to, and assists the Deputy State Director with general correspondence and basic administrative support.
