    The Lakes and Ponds Program works to protect, maintain, enhance, and restore the health of Vermont lakes and the public uses that healthy lake ecosystems provide through outreach and education, monitoring and assessment, and regulatory programs.

    Facilitate stakeholder and public outreach and engagement in Lakes and Ponds Program initiatives.
    Manage the program budget, including state and federal grants and contracts.
    Collaborate with division leadership to develop a programmatic strategic plan and then implement it.

    Work collaboratively to communicate, align, and integrate lake monitoring and assessment, outreach, regulatory, and management efforts with the other media-based programs and discharge programs in the Watershed Management Division.

    Preferred Qualifications

    Knowledge and experience in implementing elements of water resource management, including water quality monitoring and assessment, water quality policy, environmental regulation, and lake and watershed management.

    Knowledge and experience supervising remote staff or contractors.
    Experience working with a broad range of stakeholders on water quality issues and initiatives.
