About The Position
Founded in 1876, the Appalachian Mountain Club (AMC) is the oldest conservation and recreation organization in the United States. AMC’s mission is simple yet powerful: foster the protection, enjoyment, and understanding of the outdoors. Supported by 90,000 members and with 11 chapters from Virginia to Maine, AMC works to conserve the mountains, forests, waters, and trails of America’s Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions. AMC oversees and stewards well over 100,000 acres of land and 1,800 miles of trails and offers over 5,000 outdoor activities each year to help participants experience, appreciate, and learn more about the outdoors. Additionally, AMC is engaged in scientific research investigating the impacts of climate change and is committed to reducing its burden by protecting and managing land that sequesters carbon, protects biodiversity, and increases the resilience of landscapes and communities. In addition to supporting public policy to address climate change, AMC is committed to reaching “net zero” emissions as an organization by 2050. AMC is inspired by the rich experience and backgrounds of its members and friends, and aims to be a welcoming and kind community. AMC is united in its adventures by mutual trust, collective safety, respect for the natural world, and appreciation for our time together outdoors. With a focus on protecting mountains, forests, waters, and trails throughout the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions, AMC envisions a world where natural resources are healthy, loved, and always protected, and where the outdoors occupies a place of central importance in every person’s life. In early 2025, AMC released its 2025 to 2030 ALL OUT: Action Plan to connect people the outdoors. This plan focuses on the following four strategic priorities: Inspire joyous, meaningful outdoor experiences; Protect critical landscapes for the well-being of people and the outdoors; Cultivate and sustain a robust, welcoming community; Foster access to the outdoors.
