    Descrição

    Overview

    Are you ready to bring your energy and skills to help preserve the largest national park in the Washington, DC, region? The C&O Canal National Historical Park (NHP) runs 184.5 miles along the Potomac River from Washington, DC, to Cumberland, Maryland. It is beloved by over five million people who use it annually for recreation, exercise, and the enjoyment of history and nature. Almost entirely fee-free, it is one of the most accessible and visited national parks in the nation, attracting higher annual visitation than either Yellowstone or Yosemite.

    The C&O Canal Trust, the official philanthropic partner to the C&O Canal NHP, is seeking an Operations Associate with a passion for public lands and the nonprofit sector to help build our capacity to provide increasingly robust support to the Park. We are a growing nonprofit that raises funds to preserve and protect the C&O Canal NHP and manage programs that promote the Park’s natural, historical, and cultural resources for recreational and educational purposes.

    Our role is to engage a community of people — donors, elected leaders, business leaders, recreational visitors, and schoolchildren, who understand the value of and support this wonderful national park.

    The Position

    The C&O Canal Trust seeks an Operations Associate who will bring a can-do attitude, strong communication and interpersonal skills, and the ability to manage multiple tasks. The ideal candidate will be able to meet deadlines and have a keen attention to detail. This position provides an excellent opportunity for a person looking to pursue a career in professional nonprofit administration to experience and contribute to all elements of the nonprofit business process.

    The Administrative Associate reports to the Office Administrator and regularly coordinates with the Canal Quarters Manager. The position is based at the C&O Canal NHP’s headquarters building adjoining the Park in Williamsport, Maryland. Trust staff operate under a hybrid model – in-office and telework – to allow for on-site collaboration as well as focused telework time.
