Founded in 1989,
Western Resource Advocates (WRA) is dedicated to protecting the West’s land, air, and water to ensure that vibrant communities exist in balance with nature. We use law, science, and economics to craft innovative solutions to the most pressing conservation issues in the region within three core program areas: Clean Energy, Healthy Rivers and Western Lands.
Our Healthy Rivers Program envisions a future where rivers and lakes have abundant clean water to support habitat for fish and wildlife, communities and agriculture, and world class recreational opportunities; and where the Colorado River flows to the sea. Our program promotes policies and initiatives that prioritize water conservation, water recycling and urban-agricultural cooperation. We work to move away from building new dams and diversions that drain the life from our rivers, and instead to usher in a new era of water management focused on innovation, efficiency and sharing resources.
WRA’s Healthy Rivers Team is looking for a passionate Strategic Engagement Manager with knowledge of water issues in Colorado to build partnerships and long-term relationships with key decision makers and stakeholders throughout the state. Strategic Engagement Manager will collaborate with conservation community partners and liaison with current and prospective members of Colorado’s water-related decision-making bodies in order to advance bold new policies for addressing Colorado’s water supply and demand challenges. This new position can be based in WRA’s Boulder office, or remotely in Colorado.
