Saratoga Springs, United States Skidmore College Full time

The Sustainability Coordinator (SC) manages Sustainability Office student programs and projects, develops and carries out campus education and engagement activities, supports communication efforts, and assists with institutional assessment. The SC has primary responsibility for overseeing and improving student programs, managing student staff and volunteers, and maintaining relationships necessary for successful program and project collaborations. Key Sustainability Office programs that are managed by the SC include the Community Garden, the North Woods Stewards, Skidmore Compost, the Sustainability Interns, and other programs as offered. All work functions broadly support sustainability literacy and institutional sustainability efforts at the intersection of environmental stewardship, economic viability, and social equity.

**Job Duties**
- **Manage student programs & supervise student employees**:The SC provides leadership in managing core student programs (garden, compost, North Woods, interns, and engagement) and recruiting, hiring, and supervising student employees in the Sustainability Office (12-15 each year), including summer students. This role develops program plans, coordinates activities, and continually improves and evolves student programs to ensure they are relevant, inclusive, and impactful. The SC interviews, hires, trains, and guides students, while ensuring program safety, efficacy, and quality. The SC assesses student employee performance and provides feedback to support effective programs, skill building, and student leadership opportunities. The SC also recruits and manages volunteers to support sustainability programs and projects.
- **Lead campus events and engagement**:Academic year events such as speakers, film screenings, panels, and educational efforts are led by the SC or may be coordinated by student programs with significant support from the SC. These events may be student-focused or open to the community, with campus partners and community partners and will promote sustainability visibility, discussion, and awareness. The SC will cultivate, create, and facilitate efforts to maintain current connections and build new collaborations (with departmental, administrative, student, and community groups) that support sustainability-related educational and community-building opportunities. Annual campus events the Office leads or supports may include sustainability competitions, waste audits, Big Green Scream, zero-waste events, Earth Day/Month related events, and the Saratoga Sustainability Fair. The SC also supports the Gardenside sustainability living and learning community.
- **Lead and coordinate Give+Go move-out donation collection**:This May move-out program diverts thousands of pounds of usable goods, including unopened food, home goods, kitchen wares, clothing, and other small items to community non-profit partners. The event operates with the help of many volunteers to sort materials at the end of the semester and on senior move-out day. The SC is responsible for all Give+Go planning, logistics, organizing, partnerships, and volunteer recruitment and management.
- **Support campus sustainability communications**:The SC conducts website editing, newsletter development, and campus announcements, and works with Communications to publish, celebrate, and document sustainability initiatives on campus. The SC helps to develop and execute a communication strategy, manages Sustainability Office social media accounts, and offers tours to a variety of audiences.
- **Support data management and assessment**:The SC works with the Director of Sustainability Programs and Assessment on annual tracking, assessment, and reporting. Tasks may include data collection, analysis, writing, graphics production, and editing. Potential tools and frameworks used for sustainability assessment include the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education (AASHE) Sustainability Tracking Assessment and Rating System (STARS), GHG inventory protocols and calculators, and program/project specific tools. Primary sustainability focus areas for tracking and assessment include sustainability literacy and academics, sustainable operations (e.g., energy, waste, water, emissions, food, lands and grounds), campus and community engagement, and planning and administration.
- **Research and support of strategic planning**: The SC will conduct best practice, program, and project research to identify and recommend Sustainability Office and institutional changes. Reviews and evaluations as related to student programs and initiatives, especially at peer and aspirant institutions, will be a primary research focus, as well as cross-campus and sustainability operations opportunities, in support of sustainability goals and strategic planning.
- **Participate in institutional governance**: The SC is a member of two subcommittees of the Institutional Policy and Planning Committee (IPPC): the Campus Sustainabil
