WNY PRISM is hiring!

WNY PRISM is seeking qualified candidates to join our team as we expand our Aquatic Invasive Species and Education and Outreach programming! We are currently accepting applications for two new positions – Aquatic Invasive Species Programs Manager and Education and Outreach Programs Manager.

The WNY PRISM Aquatic Invasive Species Programs Manager will work to develop, establish and coordinate a regional Watercraft Inspection Boat Stewardship Program. The watercraft inspection program must include at least 20 sites and Boat Stewards, who will work at boat launches from Memorial Day to Labor Day. The Program Manager will be responsible for all aspects of the watercraft inspection program including development, hiring and supervision of Boat Stewards, reporting and program communications. The expectation is that development and coordination of the watercraft inspection program will be the primary focus of the Programs Manager during the early stages of development and implementation, with the majority of time spent during the first year or two dedicated to this program. In subsequent years, it is expected that time will be more evenly split between the watercraft inspection program and the development and implementation of additional AIS programming. Aquatic Invasive Species Programs Manager is a new position and the selected individual will report directly to the WNY PRISM Coordinator.
