Open Positions

Sonoma Valley Collaborative Assistant Director
(Part-time, Hybrid)

Join a small team making a big difference in Sonoma Valley!

We are hiring a Sonoma Valley Collaborative Assistant Director to be mentored by and potentially eventually replace the current Project Director (PD). We anticipate that the current PD will work alongside the new hire for at least six months to create a gradual transition.

To give a flavor for this position, the Assistant Director will, among other things, facilitate delicate conversations between unlike SVC members to seek consensus positions that SVC can advocate for; write and supervise communications that keep the Sonoma Valley community engaged in what SVC is doing and can do; talk with youth, business leaders, health leaders, and environment leaders in ways that show them how their own needs and goals are advanced through the efforts of SVC; get help from topic experts to thread the needle finding positions that satisfy SVC’s members’ needs; speak at government public meetings to represent SVC’s platform; learn how to protect SVC members’ “lines in the sand” while still advancing the coalition’s larger interests.
