The new Director will also present at local and national conferences, and occasionally facilitate equity, inclusion, and cultural relevancy trainings.

Successful candidates in this role will be detail- oriented with strong problem solving skills and the ability to work naturally in a team environment. You will join a collaborative team of self-motivated leaders who value equity, cultural relevancy, and inclusion as building blocks for effective work. We rely on creativity, flexibility, technology, listening, critical thinking, and humor to bring out the best in each other and our training participants, and we offer multiple opportunities for professional growth.

Grantmaking and Program Manager for Liberated Paths: Youth Access to Nature Fund: This role will collaborate with the grantmaking team to support the continued health and growth of the YAN Fund and highlight the importance of this program to our broader community, while giving priority to the voices, experiences, and perspectives of communities of color, and to strengthening the overall outdoor and environmental movement. The Youth Access to Nature Fund aims to ensure youth of color living in the Bay Area have access to meaningful experiences in nature to support their growth as leaders and students, and to improve their mental and physical health. This position will involve responsibilities in the Greater Bay Area of California.

Database Manager: This position will be responsible for helping Justice Outside take the next steps forward in our growth and development by ensuring our systems are supporting our team in building the deep and lasting relationships that are so key to our work. The Database Manager will create systems and policies for data management, oversee Justice Outside databases (including CRM and grants management systems), and advance the goals of our fundraising, communications, administrative, grantmaking, and program departments by ensuring a smooth connection to our data.
