Executive and Development Coordinator

National Park Trust protects public lands early and expands access, so the next generation grows up connected to America’s parks. By safeguarding places before they are threatened and opening the door to meaningful park experiences, we turn access into lifelong care.

The Opportunity:

National Park Trust is expanding its development capacity as it launches the initial phase of a $20 million campaign. The Executive and Development Coordinator will keep executive, board, donor meeting, and event logistics moving so the Executive Director, Senior Director of Development, and donor-facing staff can spend more time building relationships. This role suits a highly organized person who enjoys coordinating people, details, and deadlines across a small team.

Qualifications:

• Strong organizational judgment, attention to detail, and ability to manage overlapping deadlines.
• Clear written and verbal communication and comfortable working with senior leaders, trustees, donors, and colleagues.
• 1-2 years of experience coordinating meetings, travel, mailings, and events; nonprofit or fundraising experience is helpful.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office and Google Workspace; comfort learning scheduling, email, and donor systems. Experience with Canva or a CRM is helpful.
• Ability to work independently, follow through reliably, and collaborate across functions.
• Commitment to the Park Trust’s mission and willingness to travel locally or occasionally overnight for meetings and events.

Salary: Salary is $50,000–$55,000, commensurate with experience

Benefits:

• 401(k) plan with a 5% company match
• Health and dental insurance with a vision program
• Flexible spending account
• Life insurance, short-term, and long-term disability insurance
• Vacation, sick leave, and observance of all federal holidays
