Job Title: Youth Corps Field Coordinator
Job Description: Essential Job Function:
The employee in this position will provide leadership and support for 4-5 crews of approximately 10-12 youth (Ages
11-18) for crews operating on a 24/7 model and day crews. The position can be broken down into four main segments:
pre-season, crew leader training, the field season, and Yampa Valley Science School.
1. Pre-season work will include training on field coordinator-specific duties, preparation of all gear and field
resources, and assisting with the set-up and implementation of crew leader training. This is typically during the
month of April.
2. The crew leader training segment entails providing leadership and skills training to crew leaders. We mentor our
leaders on various hard and soft skills, and outline our expectations for the field season. The crew leader training
period will closely mimic many aspects of the field season. Field coordinators should expect full participation
during this time (May).
3. The main responsibilities of the field season is crew support. Field Coordinators will be expected to participate in
all aspects of the program when visiting a crew including overnight camping, nightly education facilitation, and
project site objectives (June-August)
4. The last segment of the Field Coordinator position is the YVSS camp coordinator role. This involves preparation
for training, training leaders on curriculum and camp protocol, and helping with camp operations (end of August
through September).
Once the field season starts, field coordinators generally split time 20/80 between the office and the field. Workload
changes greatly throughout the season and hours may vary dramatically depending on the needs of the crews and their
locations. Schedules are flexible and require adaptability alongside self-motivation and the ability to work independently.
