Full Job Description

As GulfCorps Conservation Crew Leader, you will act as a supervisor while working alongside a team of up to five young adults from Texas. This will include leading project work in the field to ensure project quality, tracking metrics on accomplishments, aligning our work with partner needs, and managing crew dynamics of a team of four. Our partners include the US Fish & Wildlife Service, the National Park Service, Texas Parks & Wildlife Department, and other national, state, or local environmental agencies.

With funding from the RESTORE Act, following the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, this crew works to improve inland habitats along the Texas coast. The crew will be working on restoration projects which can include invasive species removal, habitat restoration, boardwalk or trail maintenance and repair, debris removal, general landscaping, public outreach and/or education, or other land management tasks in various sites along coastal Texas. Training and/or guidance will be provided for unfamiliar tasks.

Project monitoring and data collection, using smartphone applications and other methods, will also be required throughout the season. As a crew leader, strong conservation work skills (chainsaw, herbicide application, invasive species management), strong monitoring skills (data collection, GPS, GIS), strong administrative skills (using office software such as word editors, spreadsheets, and cloud-based file storage and organization software) and experience managing crew dynamics (with strong conflict management and team-building skills) are requirements for this position. There is a strong preference for applicants with previous conservation corps experience.

This is a great opportunity for someone with previous experience in both conservation work and leadership, who wants to grow these skills in a role taking on higher responsibilities.

Expected dates, including training: 8/17/26 - 3/12/27

Leader Qualifications:

Strong preference for experience working with young adults, especially in a leadership role for outdoor work or environmental education
Strong team-building and conflict resolution skills, specifically in managing crew dynamics, managing crew morale during difficult tasks, and balancing crew needs with project and partner needs.
Strong preference for experience with conservation or related work skills – i.e. trail maintenance, trail construction, habitat restoration, chainsaw, carpentry, landscaping, and gardening
Ability to perform manual, physical labor including:
- Traveling across uneven terrain for 8 hours of a 10-hour workday, while carrying equipment or tools that can weigh 50 lbs
- Using gas-powered equipment such as chainsaws or brushcutters
- Application of herbicide, using backpack, handheld, or electric sprayers for invasive species management.
- Spending full workdays in somewhat remote settings, without access to modern amenities (no running water or electrical outlets)
- Working in temperature ranges from extreme heat and humidity to temperatures as low as freezing,
- Working in muddy or wet environments or during rainy conditions, in areas with elevation changes, or in areas with continuous direct sunlight throughout the day
Basic familiarity and abilities with computers and smartphone applications, as well as ability to learn new applications or programs
Familiarity with conservation corps crews and/or AmeriCorps programming
Familiarity in managing shared communal living spaces with coworkers
Ability to be flexible with changing project needs and conditions, including changing plans with little notice
Attentive to safety and workplace protocols
Organizational skills for tracking project outputs and numerous metrics
Comfort with long distance driving, sometimes multiple times per month, using large work trucks, including while pulling a trailer
A desire to travel throughout Texas
A desire to develop leadership skills

Required Qualifications:

Must be able to attend Crew Leader training
Must be a minimum of 21 years of age
Must have US work authorization
Must have a valid driver's license for 3+ years and MVR that meets SCA standards

Leader Benefits and Compensation:

Wilderness First Aid ($200+ value)
CPR ($50+ value)
