SkyTruth has tripled in size over the past four years, reflecting the growing demand for our data-driven tools and insights.

They will be supported by leadership and key program staff in positioning the organization to secure and steward institutional funding, and in ensuring our work is communicated clearly, credibly, and compellingly to current and prospective funders.
This is an excellent opportunity for a seasoned self-starter with an entrepreneurial mindset—someone who loves writing, researching, building relationships, learning systems, and shaping strategy. The ideal candidate will thrive in a collaborative, high-trust, mission-driven environment where their work has visible and meaningful impact.
