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.
Responsibilities & Duties
Individual FRB Project Development (50-75%)
Support the development of multiple FRB projects from conception to execution, including bringing structure and processes to innovative and ambiguous projects. Project workstreams will include:
Partnering with land managers (such as the Forest Service) on implementation strategies for priority restoration projects
Researching and engaging potential project beneficiaries
Quantifying and communicating project benefits with internal and external science partners
Developing proposals and securing funding commitments from beneficiaries
Engaging community stakeholders, Native nations, and potential project collaborators
Develop and execute project materials such as presentations, two-pagers, and memorandums to support project development and partner engagement
Foster relationships with project development partners across a portfolio of project assignments
Integrate and enhance DEI and tribal engagement throughout the project development process
Developing Expertise (20-40%)
Identify one to two areas to develop expertise within the organization. This could include a geographic or ecosystem focus, implementation or permitting, communications, scientific research, facilitation, etc.
For one to two hires, ecosystem benefit modeling and benefit scoping will likely be 30-45% of the role. This could include modeling fire ecology, forest or watershed restoration, or research on other benefits of restoration activities.
Play a key role in supporting initiatives in these areas of expertise, with increasing levels of leadership
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
Develop communications materials such as 2-pagers, story maps, and memos for projects, initiatives, and research project deliverables

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.
Responsibilities & Duties
Individual FRB Project Development (50-75%)
Support the development of multiple FRB projects from conception to execution, including bringing structure and processes to innovative and ambiguous projects. Project workstreams will include:
Partnering with land managers (such as the Forest Service) on implementation strategies for priority restoration projects
Researching and engaging potential project beneficiaries
Quantifying and communicating project benefits with internal and external science partners
Developing proposals and securing funding commitments from beneficiaries
Engaging community stakeholders, Native nations, and potential project collaborators
Develop and execute project materials such as presentations, two-pagers, and memorandums to support project development and partner engagement
Foster relationships with project development partners across a portfolio of project assignments
Integrate and enhance DEI and tribal engagement throughout the project development process
Developing Expertise (20-40%)
Identify one to two areas to develop expertise within the organization. This could include a geographic or ecosystem focus, implementation or permitting, communications, scientific research, facilitation, etc.
For one to two hires, ecosystem benefit modeling and benefit scoping will likely be 30-45% of the role. This could include modeling fire ecology, forest or watershed restoration, or research on other benefits of restoration activities.
Play a key role in supporting initiatives in these areas of expertise, with increasing levels of leadership
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
Develop communications materials such as 2-pagers, story maps, and memos for projects, initiatives, and research project deliverables
Contribute to the Blue Forest newsletter and other email and social media campaigns where appropriate and where materials can elevate key partnerships and/or project visibility

About the position
Do you have a nose for spotting patterns, an eye for detail, and a knack for juggling several projects at once? If you have a vision for how geospatial science can advance conservation, apply to be the Grand Canyon Trust’s GIS manager.
As our senior GIS analyst, you'll be part of a team finding creative ways to communicate conservation stories to the public, policymakers, and colleagues through maps and data. You will manage projects that directly impact conservation across the Colorado Plateau, help translate science and policy into visuals, and lead our geospatial analysis. You will design, develop, and implement systems and databases to access and store geospatial data for the Trust’s conservation programs. You will also be the primary lead in providing geospatial field support and creating and managing the field data workflow prior to and after data collection.
As glamorous as all that sounds, let's be realistic: To accomplish any of these tasks, you simultaneously need to upload and organize file structures, enter metadata, create new data, process data from many sources, perform repetitive data cleanup and entry, ensure geospatial services are functioning, communicate with Trust program staff, and keep up with technological changes.
If you can spot a data error or misspelling in a sea of labels, transform non-spatial data into spatial data, communicate with non-GIS personnel, and work well in a team setting and independently, then this is the job for you.
What does this position entail?
Brainstorm new ways geospatial sciences can support our conservation work.
Engage in a mix of data organization and database design, project management, analytical processing, and scripting.
Build and customize interactive web content to guide our field and volunteer crews.
Develop scripts and automation to process big data from various states and federal agencies quickly.
Plan workflows and systems for data efficiency, keeping ever-changing datasets current.
Update existing data and maps, such as pronghorn fence modifications , as volunteer crews complete projects on the ground.
Add hikes to our Colorado Plateau Explorer hiking tool.
Map land management and protection proposals across public lands in the Four corner states, including Grand Staircase-Escalante and Bears Ears national monuments, the greater Grand Canyon region, and national forests.
Do you have what it takes?
You have four years of demonstrated professional GIS experience and/or a degree in geography, GIS, or a comparable field with extensive coursework in GIS.
You are comfortable working in ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Online, Excel, relational databases, and any spatial file types.
You are familiar with Esri Survey 123, Field Maps, mobile map packages, and offline mapping.
You have some experience working with remote sensing and coding languages such as Python, R, and XML and experience with cloud-based data storage, ArcGIS Server, AWS EC2, or similar server architecture.
You understand data hierarchies, the security complexities of cloud-based data storage, and permissions.
You enjoy translating complex scientific and technical information into spatial data.
You can research effectively, process information efficiently, and see a project through from start to finish.
You can communicate clearly and translate industry terminology into nontechnical language for non-GIS professionals.
You're able to juggle many competing tasks and meet deadlines under pressure.
You have a keen eye for detail, experience working with large datasets, and can create order out of what seems like chaos.
You're creative and proactive – you notice inefficiencies and seek ways to solve them.
You have experience or are comfortable working with federal agency data, state data, private data, or data that spans multiple states and jurisdictions.
You have a background in field data collection and methods.
You have experience with ecological, hydrologic, natural resource, and/or cultural data.
You're organized, hardworking, collegial, and good at building colleague relationships.
You have an interest in environmental conservation.
Note that experience includes lived experience, traditional knowledge, volunteer experience, school or coursework, work experience, and other related qualifications, skills, and experience.
No candidate will meet every requirement. If you're excited about the position and think you may be a good candidate, we encourage you to apply, even if you don't check every box.
The nitty gritty
Flexibility and paid time off
Flexible scheduling and option to work from home
12 paid holidays
Two weeks paid vacation in year one (three weeks in year two, and four weeks in year four)

Benefits

Work with Advocacy and Outreach department members to develop messaging strategies and actions for relevant policy areas.
Identify and engage with opportunities to build strong relationships with external collaborators, partners, lawmakers, and other stakeholders.
Perform other duties as assigned.
Requirements and qualifications:
Demonstrate an interest and/or prior experience in workforce development, postsecondary and/or apprenticeship models of training, or employer practices around hiring, recruitment, and retention.
Three to five years of professional experience in policy, government, or nonprofit work is required for the Policy Analyst role; at least five years of experience is required for the Senior Policy Analyst role.
An advanced degree—such as a Master of Arts, Master of Public Policy, Master of Social Work, or Master of Public Health—or equivalent experience in a public policy, social science, or economics discipline or a specialized policy area— including workforce development, housing, education, or equivalent—is preferred but not required.
Flexibility as a teammate, with a willingness to work on a wide variety of policies and issues based on the needs of the team, department, and organization.
