The Nature Conservancy is seeking candidates for a new position to direct
strategies that address the problem of invasive species in aquatic systems
(see attached position description - Aquatic Invasive Species Director).
This person will be responsible for working in collaboration with public
and private partners to apply the best available science to policy and
management strategies that help solve the problem of aquatic invasives.
Please let us know of candidates who might be interested in this
challenging and important position ASAP, as we intend to conduct interviews
in early February.

Recently, The Conservancy added staff in Washington D.C. to address
national and international policy opportunities related to invasives (both
terrestrial and aquatic). The Conservancy also signed an agreement with The
University of Notre Dame to join the leading scientific research of Dr.
David Lodge's lab and other Notre Dame researchers with The Nature
Conservancy's interests in addressing threats to aquatic systems posed by
invasive non-native species.  The new position we are seeking to fill will
be responsible for working closely with The Conservancy’s Global Invasives
Species Initiative, Great Lakes Program, Notre Dame, and other programs,
partners, and staff committed to abating one of the top threats to global
biodiversity.
