Position Summary
The Northeast States for Coordinated Air Use Management (NESCAUM) seeks an enthusiastic and motivated environmental professional with leadership skills for a full-time Deputy Director position to help manage NESCAUM’s day-to-day operations and its air quality and climate program work. The selected candidate will also have the opportunity to pursue their air quality and climate interests consistent with NESCAUM’s program areas. A NESCAUM career is a unique opportunity to engage in problem solving alongside committed public service colleagues in state government in collectively pursuing meaningful solutions to today’s most challenging air quality and climate issues.

About NESCAUM
NESCAUM is a nonprofit association of the state air pollution control agencies in the six New England states, New Jersey and New York. NESCAUM provides technical and policy assistance to its members on air pollution, climate, and energy issues of regional concern in the Northeast and represents the states in regional, national and international forums. Ever since its creation in 1967, NESCAUM has been at the leading edge of innovative state air quality and climate initiatives that have lead to clean air and climate progress in the Northeast and nationally. As a core part of its work, NESCAUM conducts air quality, clean technology, and climate policy research in support of state planning efforts and arranges professional trainings for air agency staff. Our close ties and longstanding relationships with state air quality agencies allow NESCAUM to work directly with the states within our region and nationally to advance collective priorities on improving air quality and mitigating climate change.
NESCAUM’s activities are governed by a Board of Directors composed of the lead air quality officials in its eight member states. NESCAUM has an annual operating budget of about $4 million with a staff of about twenty.
NESCAUM also manages the Ozone Transport Commission (OTC), a multi-state organization created under the Clean Air Act and led by governor or mayor appointees from twelve Northeast and Mid-Atlantic states and the District of Columbia. The OTC is responsible for assessing the degree of interstate ozone pollution transport within the region and recommending to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency measures that will address its interstate ground-level ozone problem. All NESCAUM staff are also OTC staff.
