Executive Director

St. Paul, MN

Conservation Corps Minnesota & Iowa (CCMI), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization and AmeriCorps grantee, engages hundreds of people each year in programs and initiatives that improve access to outdoor recreation, restore natural habitat, protect waterways, and respond to developments both in climate change and in clean energy. CCMI offers a wide range of year-long and seasonal opportunities for those interested in a meaningful service experience, leadership development, and environmental stewardship.

The Corps seeks its next Executive Director to lead a bold agenda, to provide stability and inspiration to the skilled and committed staff, and to envision an organizational and world future that is financially sustainable and that recognizes the changing needs and priorities of our day.

The Executive Director reports to CCMI's 19-member Board of Directors and is responsible for consistent achievement of CCMI's environmental stewardship, service-learning mission, and financial objectives. The Executive Director provides guidance and oversight of an annual operating budget of $10+ million with multiple revenue streams, leads a passionate and committed team of 41 staff members and nearly 400 program participants, and works to build a cohesive, equitable, and inclusive team among approximately seven locations in Minnesota and Iowa.

The Executive Director is the organization's chief spokesperson and is responsible for cultivating partnerships with government, corporate and foundation leaders, individual donors, and environmental leaders. The Executive Director leads and directs CCMI staff and Corps members in a manner that draws on the strength of the rich history of the Conservation Corps movement, while also enacting the mission in the context of contemporary challenges and opportunities.

The salary range for this position annually is between $150,000 and $175,000 and will be commensurable with experience. The comprehensive benefits package includes health and dental insurance, 401(k) retirement savings, 13 holidays plus additional floating holidays each year, and Paid Time Off including Vacation, Sick, and other Leave.

The Executive Director role is primarily in-person and based out of CCMI's St. Paul office, with some flexibility for hybrid work. CCMI staff work on-site from St. Paul, from regional offices in Minnesota and St. Paul, and at field sites. The Executive Director will occasionally be required to travel to sites throughout Minnesota and Iowa.
