Join the Mohonk Preserve Team!
Located in the beautiful Hudson River Valley, Mohonk Preserve is New York’s largest nonprofit nature preserve. Our mission is to protect the Shawangunk Mountains region and inspire people to care for, enjoy, and explore their natural world. We manage over 8,000 acres of mountain cliffs, forests, fields and streams through four integrated programs – Conservation Science, Education, Land Stewardship, and Land Protection – and welcome over 300,000 members and visitors each year who come to hike, run, rock climb, boulder, bike, cross-country ski, snowshoe and enjoy and experience nature.
Based in a vibrant university community, Mohonk Preserve offers a great working environment in one of New York’s greenest counties with all-season recreation, access to Preserve lands, a dynamic, committed team of conservation professionals and long legacy of conducting ecological research and environmental education. The Preserve is also the home of one of America’s premier rock-climbing destinations.

Our Outreach Coordinator will develop and teach environmental education programs on the land and within schools as well as plan and lead summer camps in rotation with other staff.
We are seeking an educator with experience teaching youths and adults outdoors, with excellent organizational, interpersonal and bi-lingual skills (preferred). Bachelor’s degree in Environmental Education, natural sciences or related field (Masters preferred).
