Your work will create the foundational dataset that guides conservation decisions, policy, and land management for decades to come. You’ll have the unique opportunity to engage hundreds of citizen scientists, collaborate with leading ornithologists, and produce a landmark publication that will be THE reference for NH birds. This is truly a once-in-a-generation project.

Organization Description and Position Profile

New Hampshire Audubon Mission: To protect New Hampshire’s natural environment for wildlife and for people.

New Hampshire Audubon (NH Audubon) is one of the oldest conservation nonprofit organizations in New Hampshire. Founded in 1914, NH Audubon was established separately from National Audubon Society and remains fully independent. As such, NH Audubon’s focus is entirely on the protection of New Hampshire’s wildlife and habitats.

NH Audubon has four key program areas: environmental education, environmental policy, conservation science, and land stewardship. We have three staffed centers where we offer programming and education: McLane Center (headquarters) in Concord, Massabesic NH Audubon Center in Auburn, and Paradise Point NH Audubon Center (seasonal) in Hebron.  NH Audubon has an operating budget of close to $3 million. NH Audubon has 5,000 members and over 3,000 donors, with combined income from these segments of approximately $1.5 million. Last year we benefited from the contributions of over 2,000 volunteers to help us accomplish our work. We are recognized as one of the most influential and visible conservation organizations in the state, and we work closely with many conservation partners on both a regional and state-wide basis.

In 2019, NH Audubon released Valuing Connections, a Vision for our Second Century. This document lays out the organization’s four strategic priorities that will guide our work in the coming decades.
