About Blue Forest
Blue Forest is a conservation finance non-profit whose mission is to accelerate the pace and scale of ecological restoration. Since 2018, Blue Forest has managed investor capital through its flagship financial product, the Forest Resilience Bond (FRB), which deploys private capital to finance forest restoration projects on private and public lands to reduce the risk of catastrophic wildfires. More recently, Blue Forest has also established Blue Forest Asset Management (BFAM), an investment management platform connecting investors to compelling, mission-aligned opportunities in broader asset classes beyond FRB projects, such as private equity and private credit investments.
Blue Forest is an interdisciplinary team of scientists, engineers, foresters, finance and communications professionals. We are harnessing financial innovation and building partnerships with investors, non-profits, private companies, and the public sector to design sustainable solutions to systemic climate resilience challenges faced by vulnerable communities and ecosystems. As we grow and develop new financial solutions to pressing environmental problems, we are committed to promoting social equity and amplifying historically excluded voices in the burgeoning field of conservation finance.
Position Summary
Project Analysts and Associates at Blue Forest focus on the development of conservation finance projects while coordinating and contributing to other aspects of Blue Forest workstreams, including research and science efforts, communications, education and capacity building, and building and maintaining partnerships. This typically includes working on two to three projects simultaneously and, over time, developing a specialization (e.g., geographic, issue area, modeling, communications) that advances project development across the organization.
For this posting, we are looking to hire 2-3 Analyst and/or Associate roles:
One role will be a generalist focused fully on project development
One to two hires will have a portion of their role that leans into the scientific modeling side of project development, benefit scoping and evaluation, science communication, and research.
Position responsibilities include supporting execution and day-to-day operations for individual projects, fostering and managing relationships with project partners, facilitating the advancement of working relationships between Blue Forest and beneficiary organizations, and partnering with Managers and Directors to connect day-to-day operations with a long-term strategy.
The project development aspect of the role involves being detail-oriented during day-to-day operations and execution while supporting Managers and Directors with strategy. Analysts and Associates play a key role in project development by developing written materials, working with Managers and Directors to give presentations, and developing relationships with partners. In addition, Analysts and Associates spend their time supporting or servicing as lead coordinator for special projects within other departments at Blue Forest.

Partnerships, Operations, and Communications (10-15%)
Support planning site visits with project partners, executing grant reporting, enhancing internal knowledge sharing, and developing system processes and organization

Organization Overview
America Votes works with over 400 state and national partner organizations to advance progressive policies, win elections, and protect every American's right to vote.
Since 2003, America Votes has been the common link between many of the largest and most influential issue and membership organizations in the country, serving as the coordination hub of the progressive community. America Votes' work has brought together a wide range of causes and built a unified coalition that has transformed how the progressive community works. Together, they have engaged communities across the country to take action on critical issues - from fighting for working families, defending reproductive rights, protecting the environment, and more - and mobilized millions of voters.
America Votes works year-round nationally and in more than 20 states, acting as a permanent campaign to continually advance progressive causes, modernize elections, and win elections. America Votes provides a range of services to partners, including strategic planning, advocacy and electoral campaign coordination, data tools and targeting services, and on-the-ground leadership in key states.
America Votes also works to improve election systems and fight back against efforts to suppress voters, taking the lead throughout their state network to coordinate and execute advocacy campaigns with allies to reform elections and modernize the voting process.
Racial Equity Statement
As a leader of collaborative efforts to mobilize voters, protect voting rights, and win elections, America Votes is committed to advancing racial equity within our organization and across our coalition. We acknowledge the systematic racism that permeates all facets of our society, beginning with the foundational right to vote. America Votes is also engaging with an understanding of the ways gender, sexuality and other forms of oppression intersect with race and how those relationships impact inequities faced by our staff, our partners, and the communities that we engage in our work. America Votes strives to model our commitment to racial equity through our internal and external operations, programs, and partnerships. We acknowledge the inequitable structures that continue to exist and are moving forward with a sustained commitment in time, resources and people to challenge structural racism and work towards creating a reflective organization and democracy.
Position Description
America Votes is looking for a Data Analyst to find and communicate insights to improve our voter contact programs, win elections, and drive progressive change. We are looking for someone who is excited about talking to staff across teams to understand their needs and questions, then create dashboards, graphs, memos and slide decks to share answers. You will spend most of your time working with data from the voter file and voter contact tools, so we would love to hear from candidates who have previously worked on a political campaign or at a progressive organization. However, we are also open to candidates with strong technical skills and a demonstrated interest in political campaigning.
This is a permanent, full-time bargaining unit position that reports to the Analytics Director.
Responsibilities
Lead our dashboard creation and data visualization work, including designing and building dashboards and creating graphs for external presentations. Help increase usage of our dashboards across the progressive space by collaborating with users to understand and meet their needs.
Collaborate with internal program staff to translate their needs into analytics questions, investigate those questions using SQL queries and other tools, then communicate your findings in clear, accessible, and actionable ways. This is often via graphs and slide decks, so the ideal candidate loves creating clean, accessible visuals that tell a story.
Stay up to date with research and best practices from across the political data space, continually grow your own analytics knowledge, and help national and state staff incorporate new methods into our analysis work.
Help with other analytics team projects as needed.
Qualifications Must Haves
Intermediate SQL skills - you should have worked in a data warehouse environment before, be comfortable writing queries with joins and aggregate functions, and care about writing clean and well-documented code.
Experience creating dashboards for non-technical users. We currently use Tableau, but we are platform agnostic for this role - we care that you understand how to communicate clearly in a dashboard, not necessarily that you have used a particular platform before.
Experience gleaning actionable insights from data; ability to communicate recommendations clearly in presentations, graphs, and written memos.
Either previous experience working on a political campaign or at a progressive organization, or demonstrated interest in politics and an excitement to learn about political data.
A service oriented approach to data work that prioritizes collaboration, supporting staff and partners, and building for the long term.
Nice to Haves
Experience working with data from the voter file and voter contact tools like NGP/VAN.
More advanced technical skills, including advanced SQL skills, coding in R or Python, or experience using dbt (data build tool) for data transformations.
More advanced knowledge of analytics and statistical methods such as regressions, predictive modeling, or time series analysis.
Deeper experience with visual or user experience design, especially accessible-first design.
