About Blue Forest
Blue Forest is a conservation finance non-profit founded in 2015 that is focused on advancing ecosystem restoration through scientific research, financial innovation, and collaborative partnerships. 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 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 a broader set of asset classes beyond FRB projects, such as private equity and private credit investments.
Blue Forest is made up of an interdisciplinary team of scientists, engineers, foresters, finance, and communications professionals committed to the mission: “To accelerate ecological restoration through conservation finance, enabling climate resilience for ecosystems and communities”. Employees at Blue Forest are:
Committed to Continuous Learning
Driven by Collaboration
Thoughtful Innovators for Impact
Ground in Science
Passionate about Restoring Earth’s Ecosystems
As we grow and develop new financial solutions to pressing environmental problems, we are seeking to amplify and collaborate with those historically excluded in conservation finance. We recognize that a diverse, equitable, and inclusive organization is not only vital but also a key driver of strength, resilience, and success.
Position Summary
Project Development Managers at Blue Forest lead the development and coordination of conservation finance efforts. This role involves being detail-oriented during day-to-day project operations and execution while also establishing project strategies and developing relationships with project partners. The Project Development Manager develops and implements strategies for individual projects, collaborates with the Blue Forest communication teams on project communication efforts, and fosters relationships with state agencies, non-profits, local research partners, beneficiary funders, and land managers for the region. This position will focus on FRB Project Development and partnerships across the Colorado River Basin, a new-to-Blue Forest geography which will require navigating ambiguity, taking initiative, and self-direction.
This position requires partnering with Director-level staff to develop big-picture strategies, leading project management and day-to-day project development, as well as supervising Analyst- and Associate-level project development staff immediately or in the future. Project and program management requires close collaboration with colleagues and partners across internal and external organizational departments, largely in a remote work environment; therefore, an ability to learn and collaborate interdisciplinarily is essential to success.
Position Responsibilities
FRB Project Development in Colorado (70%)
Supporting the expansion of Blue Forest’s conservation finance project development work into Colorado and other Colorado River Basin states
Managing the development of multiple conservation finance projects from conception to execution, bringing structure and processes to innovative and ambiguous projects. Project workstreams include:

Partnering with land managers (such as the Forest Service) to create implementation strategies for priority restoration projects
Researching and engaging potential project beneficiaries including utilities, corporates interested in nature based solutions, and local and state governments
Working with Blue Forest’s science team and science partners to quantify and communicate project benefits
Developing and maintaining relationships, crafting proposals, and securing funding commitments from beneficiaries (as described above)
Engaging, developing, and maintaining relationships with community stakeholders, Native nations, and potential project collaborators
Developing and delivering project materials such as presentations, two-pagers, and memorandums to support project development
Cultivating and managing relationships with key project development partners across a portfolio of project assignments
Regional Strategy and Partnerships in Colorado and other Basin states (20%)
Establish, develop, and manage key relationships with state agencies, Region 2 of the U.S. Forest Service, Native nations, state and regional beneficiaries, and other Colorado River Basin-wide stakeholders
Partner with the Blue Forest leadership team to identify opportunities to expand conservation finance models (like the FRB) to other sectors and ecosystems
Integrate and enhance DEI and tribal engagement throughout the project development process
Partner with the leadership team to build the pipeline of projects in Colorado, including identifying and managing revenue opportunities such as grant opportunities, consulting to public or private entities, or new business model generation
Staff Management and Growth (10%)
Immediately or in the future, supervise analyst- and associate-level staff
Regularly meet with direct reports to support staff development/growth and help build a culture where staff are empowered to bring their unique contributions to the team
Be a champion for company culture, values, equity, and inclusion

Researching and engaging potential project beneficiaries including utilities, corporates interested in nature based solutions, and local and state governments
Working with Blue Forest’s science team and science partners to quantify and communicate project benefits
Developing and maintaining relationships, crafting proposals, and securing funding commitments from beneficiaries (as described above)
Engaging, developing, and maintaining relationships with community stakeholders, Native nations, and potential project collaborators
Developing and delivering project materials such as presentations, two-pagers, and memorandums to support project development

Integrate and enhance DEI and tribal engagement throughout the project development process
Partner with the leadership team to build the pipeline of projects in Colorado, including identifying and managing revenue opportunities such as grant opportunities, consulting to public or private entities, or new business model generation

Immediately or in the future, supervise analyst- and associate-level staff
Regularly meet with direct reports to support staff development/growth and help build a culture where staff are empowered to bring their unique contributions to the team
