The University of Wyoming (UW) invites applications for an Actionable Science Coordinator for the Wyoming Anticipating Climate-Water Transitions (WY-ACT) project with the Center for Climate, Water and People. This NSF-EPSCoR funded project builds the capacity of Wyoming residents to anticipate and prepare for significant and lasting changes in water availability. This position will coordinate engagement activities to create useable and actionable science, track community engagement, and build capacity and sustainability for the Center for Climate, Water and People. The project will be based in Laramie with travel to communities in western Wyoming. We are open to considering alternative primary work locations within Wyoming if the location benefits the project.
We seek an organized, personable, and adaptable colleague to serve in this critical project position. We welcome applicants with demonstrated experience in facilitation, creating knowledge across diverse groups, and a desire to work with Wyoming communities. Candidates may bring expertise from any number of applicable fields including communication, extension, public policy, environmental policy, political science, natural resources, water, ecology, and collaborative governance, and could include experience in the public, private or nonprofit sector.
