We are a national nonprofit organization with 300,000 members and supporters organized into over 400 chapters and councils nationwide. Our dedicated grassroots volunteers are matched by a respected staff of restoration professionals, organizers, lawyers, policy experts, and scientists, who work out of more than 45 offices across the country.
Trout Unlimited has been engaged in advocacy and restoration in the Clark Fork Basin of western Montana for more than two decades. Trout Unlimited project staff are focused on restoration work to benefit trout populations and their habitats in the Clark Fork watershed from the headwaters near Butte, MT downstream more than 250 miles to Thompson Falls.
POSITION SUMMARY
Trout Unlimited's field staff hold unique and diverse roles within the conservation community. The shortest description of the job is to make things happen. In that spirit, TU is hiring a self-motivated and highly capable person to advance TU's restoration efforts in the headwaters of the Clark Fork River. The Upper Clark Fork Project Manager prioritizes, plans, and implements projects to improve fish passage, benefit streamflow, restore habitat, and improve water quality in a watershed heavily impacted by historical mining, smelting, and land use practices. TU has been engaged in project work to restore Upper Clark Fork fisheries since 2010 and the Project Manager will transition into leading this effort into the future. The initial focus for the position will be to implement a suite of irrigation infrastructure and fish passage improvement projects with multiple funding partners intended to fully reconnect the headwaters of the Upper Clark Fork River and the Warm Springs Creek tributary watershed.
Competitive candidates for this position must demonstrate strong project management skills. Preference will be given to candidates with background and experience in construction management, stream restoration, natural sciences, and partnership building in our watersheds and on our working lands in Montana. The Project Manager will work closely with federal and state agencies, local governments, watershed groups, consultants, TU chapters, and landowners on projects that mutually benefit stream health, fish populations and watershed resiliency. Candidates must demonstrate a strong ability to work cooperatively with diverse project partners and stakeholders. The ability to effectively advocate for desirable outcomes for cold water fisheries is also required.
The position will be based within the Upper Clark Fork watershed with proximity to the Butte/Anaconda area preferred.
