Full position description and application instructions

Summary:

Redwood Forest Foundation, Inc is not a traditional forest owner and manager. It was conceived by northwest coastal community members committed to restoring local control of overcut forests. For over 10 years, RFFI has practiced award winning, certified sustainable forest management across a 50,000-acre landscape. RFFI’s Executive Director is someone who will continue to strengthen operations both financially and organizationally, support Usal Redwood Forest as an outstanding model of community driven forestry, and position RFFI to expand this model of community ownership and control of forest management to additional lands.

We seek an Executive Director with demonstrated success in non-profit leadership, a passion for forests, a commitment to climate change mitigation and a vision for active community engagement. The position is supported by an experienced forestry team, energetic program and development staff, and a board that has demonstrated a long-term commitment to RFFI and the opportunity it represents.
