See the attached Press Release for more information about the Stewardship Network and visit scmsn.net/apply for details about the position and instructions on how to apply. 

The Santa Cruz Mountains Stewardship Network was formed in 2015 as an inclusive, region-wide collaboration of 19 large landowners in the Santa Cruz Mountain region that extends from south of San Francisco to the Salinas Valley, east to the Santa Clara Valley, and west to the Pacific Ocean. The Network includes individuals and organizations representing local, state, and federal agencies, nonprofit organizations, research institutions, private landowners, and community and tribal groups, nearly all of whom either own or are responsible for managing both protected and working lands throughout the region. The network is committed to working together to balance both ecological and economic goals to foster a resilient, vibrant regional ecosystem where human and natural systems thrive for generations to come.

The Network Manager’s primary responsibilities will be to cultivate collaboration between network members and to act as the network’s organizational coordinator. The Network Manager will be responsible for connecting network members with each other and with other important contacts in the region, identifying and advancing opportunities for collaboration and information sharing between member organizations, helping to secure more resources for land stewardship, and educating the public about the importance of caring for land throughout the region. The Network Manager will work closely with the network’s leadership team and report to the entire network.
