The work we do is collaborative, innovative, and always committed to the public good. GreenInfo's clients are passionate about fair elections, equity in park access, public health, and land conservation, to name a few. As GIS Manager, you have done this before: You have managed GIS projects and teams. You have been in the GIS trenches yourself and have delivered complex work on time and on budget, ideally in a client-services shop. You will lead team meetings, keep tabs on staff needs and provide support and guidance to resolve issues when they arise, provide direction for staff development pathways, provide insight on staff assignments for incoming projects. You will collaborate with GIN project managers to define project priorities for GIS team members across projects and track workloads across the GIS team. You will also manage large projects, managing project staff, tracking project priorities and deadlines, and interacting with clients. Qualities we’re looking for:
Specific skills we're interested in:
At GreenInfo, we work at the unique intersection of technology and nonprofit advocacy, with a large part of our history in support of land conservation. To serve the public good while pushing the edge of new tech is extremely rewarding, and our work in conservation has evolved and expanded into a range of spheres, including park equity and public health mapping. While we celebrate more than 28 years helping nonprofits in this sphere, we also recognize that both the tech industry and the conservation movement have histories of exclusion. We are conscious of that history, and are focused on improving our hiring practices, organizational culture, and project approaches to be ever more inclusive. GreenInfo Network is an equal opportunity employer. Women, people of color, and members of the LGBTQ+ community are encouraged to apply for this position. We believe we all bring our whole selves to work, and we strive to foster a culture where we take care of ourselves, each other, and our clients. Based on 28 years of being a small, financially stable nonprofit where staff often stay for a long time, we value flexibility and accommodating the needs of our staff and their families. Our team of 14 is located in the Bay Area, Los Angeles, Oregon, Seattle, Vermont, and Washington DC. This is a full-time, exempt staff position with benefits. Pay is $92–97K, commensurate with experience. In addition to the core salary, we also offer annual supplemental salary to all staff based on overall organizational performance. This has been in the range of 5% to 7% annually over the past decade. Work location: Our team is a hybrid of fully remote (US-based) and on-site staff located in the SF Bay Area. We plan to continue with a hybrid approach, but we prefer candidates based within occasional driving distance of our Oakland office. Candidates must be based in the United States and authorized to work in the U.S. without restriction. Specific Duties GIS team leadership
