ABOUT TROUT UNLIMITED

Trout Unlimited (TU) takes care of the rivers and clean water that trout, salmon, and communities around the country depend on. We are a nationwide network of advocates, outdoor enthusiasts, volunteers, anglers, and staff dedicated to protecting places where trout and salmon thrive and recovering rivers and fisheries that need help. We want to make sure healthy rivers and fisheries are available for all people to use and enjoy. TU has 300,000 members and supporters backed by a respected staff of organizers, lawyers, policy experts, and scientists, who operate out of more than 45 offices across the country. In the Colorado River Basin, TU has a dynamic conservation team that works with a range of partners to advance conservation projects and policies strengthening water resilience. Known for steadfastness, ingenuity, and deep community trust, our team spearheads efforts to protect watersheds across the Upper and Lower Basins.

Position Summary

Trout Unlimited (TU) seeks to hire a Colorado River Program Manager to support TU's project and policy work and coordinate with partners in the Colorado River Basin. TU's work across the Basin is expanding in exciting new ways, and this role presents an opportunity for motivated candidates to work on impactful issues. The Program Manager will work closely with the Colorado River Program Director & Western Water Policy Advisor, project managers, and state directors to support the development of proposals through federal funding programs including the Bureau of Reclamation's WaterSMART programs and Natural Resources Conservation Service programs. The Program manager will also track and analyze federal programs and funding awards to understand how programs are supporting conservation work across the West.

In addition, the Colorado River Program Manager will engage with TU's partners, including NGOs, federal and state agencies, and agricultural producers, to advance shared goals. The Program Manager will facilitate cross-organization teams, develop and maintain shared resources that support project implementation at scale, and support shared communications efforts. The individual in this position must be a self-starter with excellent organizational skills and strong attention to detail in large and small projects. The Manager will possess the ability to problem-solve, multitask, and facilitate small groups, and will provide proactive and enthusiastic support to the broader Colorado River team.

This is a hybrid position. The role has flexibility to work remotely from home; however, the position must occasionally travel to team meetings and other events.

  5. Work with and support the Colorado River Program Director & Western Water Policy Advisor in tracking and responding to Colorado River Basin policy, news, and events.
  6. Compile information for and support creation of materials for meetings, conferences, events, and reports.

  2. Support organization of and logistics for annual Colorado River Team meetings.
  3. Serve as a liaison, when needed, between the Colorado River Team and staff from other departments across TU.

  4. Develop and maintain a resource bank of science, technical, policy, communications, and funding tools accessible to project managers across the Colorado River Basin to help increase the pace and scale of projects promoting water-related climate resilience.

This is not an all-inclusive list of duties and responsibilities.
