Climate Program Associate

The Center for Biological Diversity seeks a full-time Climate Program
Associate to work as part of our Climate Program. The Center is a national
non-profit organization dedicated to protecting endangered species and wild
places through science, policy, education, and environmental law.

The Center's Climate Program works to protect endangered species and
ecosystems by reducing greenhouse gas pollution and improving management for
species most threatened by the climate crisis. The program has initiated a
number of cases to enforce existing state and federal laws that already
address global warming, as well as implementing administrative projects to
protect species most at risk, including petitions to list species such as
the polar bear, penguins, and reef-building corals under the Endangered
Species Act due to global warming.

The Climate Program Associate will be responsible for providing
administrative and program support to the Climate Program Director, as well
as drafting a wide range of climate related communications and interacting
with the media, local, state, and federal agencies, other environmental
organizations and the public. Some travel required.
