Description
ABOUT THE FOOD LITERACY PROJECTThe Food Literacy Project's mission is about youth transforming their communities through food, farming, and the land. Dedicated to a vision for a healthy and equitable community where people and places thrive since 2006, the Food Literacy Project engages youth, their families, schools and neighbors in hands-on learning and leadership development experiences with farming and fresh foods at outdoor classrooms our urban farm, in school gardens, and in classrooms and kitchens. The organization advances a more just and sustainable food system and strengthens communities, positioning youth as drivers of personal and social change.
The Food Literacy Project is in an exciting phase of growth toward our Forever Home, with plans to purchase 10 acres of land in southwest Louisville this year to establish a youth-driven farm and plant our roots long-term. Our Forever Home will serve as a vibrant hub for urban agriculture, youth development and employment, fresh food education and access, community engagement, and cultural exchange. Future phases of this plan will include infrastructure to support program growth and expansion, an outdoor classroom, and community gathering space.
The Food Literacy Project's values include:
ENERGY: We are bold and inspired by our community.
ROOTS: We are grounded and purposeful, connected with people and dedicated to sustainably addressing community needs.
DISCOVERY: We embrace the joy of learning by doing.
CULTIVATION: We bring great care to our work and relationships; we nourish growth in our community, and in turn are nourished ourselves.
ABUNDANCE: We leverage our community's diverse assets to achieve personal and social change.
JUSTICE: We pursue fairness and equity.
THE OPPORTUNITY
The Food Literacy Project is seeking an engaged, self-directed leader to offer strategic financial oversight and participate in shaping broad organizational strategy alongside our collaborative leadership team during a season of growth and transformation for our organization.

The Director of Finance and Administration will join an inclusive and collaborative work culture, built on mutual respect. 100% of our staff have completed the Social Justice Youth Development certificate program through the University of Louisville - an opportunity that will be offered and encouraged for new team members. Candidates should demonstrate commitment to the organization's values: energy, roots, discovery, cultivation, abundance, and justice. The Food Literacy Project offers a flexible, hybrid work environment with opportunities to gather in-person with youth, neighbors, and each other.
RESPONSIBILITIES
With support and oversight from the Executive Director, the Director of Finance and Administration will manage the organization's financial and administrative functions, including accounting and bookkeeping, human resources, insurance, and maintenance of assets.
Accounting & Finance:
The Food Literacy Project is prepared to offer a competitive salary in the range of $65,000-70,000 commensurate with experience. Benefits include group health insurance; IRA match; generous, flexible PTO, and a hybrid work environment.
Equal Opportunity Employer:
