High Desert Conservation Corps- AmeriCorps Field Team Leader
 
 
 
This position is a 47 week, 1700-hour, full-time, nonresidential service position that has a leadership, but not supervisory role on the crew. The FTL will gain hands-on experience in conservation projects and leadership skills. The FTL will be trained on how to successfully lead a crew of young adults under the supervision of a HOC Crew Leader. Over time, the FTL will be tasked with leading a crew without the direct presence of a Crew Leader. This will be one (1) day per week on average after completing their training period. During this time, the FLT will take the skills gained from training and shadowing their Crew Leader to successfully complete a project day. Crew Leaders or applicable staff will debrief with and assess the day with the FTL. The goal for this term of service is to produce competent crew leaders who can further conservation efforts in Central Oregon and beyond. The position serves outside on public lands about 85% of the time. The position is ideal for people who want to gain leadership skills and experience within a conservation crew setting. While not strictly required, previous experience with conservation corps, natural resources, outdoor leadership, and or environmental education backgrounds/degrees is preferred. A strong desire to lead and take on responsibility is essential for this role. Service is on a full-time basis, primarily Monday-Friday daily, without regular overnight camping. Some overnight projects will occur occasionally throughout the term of service, but this is not the primary model for HDCC.
