Lake George is one of the clearest and cleanest lakes in the world, a testament to decades of protection led by the Lake George Association.
The Lake George Association (LGA) is seeking a passionate and collaborative Education for Action Manager to lead environmental education and community engagement initiatives that inspire stewardship and mobilize action to protect Lake George.
This position plays a central role in translating science into engaging, actionable learning experiences for residents, schools, visitors, businesses, municipalities, and community partners. Working closely across LGA’s Science, Advocacy, Solutions, Partnerships and Communications teams, the Education for Action Manager develops and implements programs that deepen understanding of freshwater protection and empower people to take meaningful action on behalf of Lake George.
The role combines environmental education, project management, curriculum development, staff leadership, and community outreach.
