I wanted to draw your attention to what is a pretty cool opportunity to apply expertise in both conservation planning and financial modeling to make conservation more durable. The team this job is on is part of an initiative between Pew, TNC, WWF, and Zomalab to avoid the challenges of “paper parks” by ensuring that conservation management is properly resourced and durable. They are hoping to get someone strong on both the conservation planning side as well as the financial side if possible. They need a minimum of 10 years applicable experience and at least a bachelor’s degree in conservation, finance, or management, and there’s a lot of information in the job description (including that it’s based in Washington, DC, which is not flexible). https://pewtrusts.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/TrustsExternal/job/Washington-DC-901-E/Senior-Officer--Conservation-and-Financial-Planning--Global-Project-Finance-for-Permanence-Initiative_R001068 I’m not part of the hiring process and don’t have a ton of unique insight into the position, but let me know if you have questions the job description doesn’t answer.   Jon

The Global Climate Science Team at the Nature Conservancy is accepting applications for a Forest NCS Analyst. The position is posted oncareers.nature.org (Job ID# 49681). The Forest NCS Analyst will increase capacity on the team as part of the Climate Smart Forestry and Reforestation Pathways of the Bezos Earth Fund NCS project. They will play a critical role in analyzing geospatial and tabular data for these projects. They’ll be involved in all aspects of that research, from planning and designing projects through publication and dissemination of research, but their primary tasks will be “turning the crank” on complex, multiscale geospatial and statistical analyses. The ideal candidate is a committed, detailed-oriented analyst, able to work independently, but excited to collaborate with a wide array of scientists and practitioners.
