The ideal candidate will have exceptional communication and collaboration skills and experience crafting stories that meaningfully connect a donor's philanthropic goals with TNC's critically important on-the-ground efforts across our chapter's landscapes. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to the ongoing mission of climate and conservation by shaping (and telling!) the stories that bring our ambitious work to life as we enter a campaign that will have lasting impact across the three states we serve - and globally!
This is a highly collaborative role where some in-person work at our Minneapolis office is expected. Our office is across Gold Medal Park and next to trails lining the Mississippi river. We offer free onsite parking and a flexible hybrid work environment.
