The National Marine Sanctuary Foundation (“Foundation”) tells the stories of the people, communities, natural wonders, and cultural heritage of our National Marine Sanctuary System. With six new sanctuaries in the pipeline for designation over the next few years, now is a critical time to build new constituencies and partnerships for the message that sanctuaries are sources of solutions for our greatest challenges, including biodiversity loss, climate change, and systemic inequity.

**This role is currently offered as a three-year term position.** Position may be extended based on continued availability of funding. The Communications Manager supports the scope of a federal cooperative agreement between the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation and NOAA Office of National Marine Sanctuaries that focuses on public engagement in the designation process of new national marine sanctuaries.

The National Marine Sanctuary Foundation is committed to a culture of inclusion, equity, and belonging. We are dedicated to attracting and retaining a diverse staff. We honor experiences, perspectives, and unique identities, and welcome the contributions that you can bring to the dedicated team. With a diverse team of employees, we can grow and learn better together and achieve our mission to protect the ocean's health, coasts, and Great Lakes for current and future generations.

**What **You’ll** Do**
- Support the growth of the National Marine Sanctuary System through communicating the impact and value of sanctuaries and advocating new sanctuary expansions, designations, and nominations.
- Create and execute a multi-year social media and digital presence strategy, with emphasis on growing followership and engagement.
- Manage the Foundation’s digital communications platforms, including the website and social media channels.
