Assistant Director - SGI Seeds of Success, Southeast
Austin Peay State University’s (APSU) Southeastern Grasslands Initiative (SGI) invites applications for the SGI Seeds of Success-Southeast Assistant Director. This position will assist with the implementation of the National Seed Strategy. This is a full-time, nontenure-track, position within the Southeastern Grasslands Institute, part of the Center of Excellence for Field Biology. This is a 5-year contract with funding from the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Partners for Fish and Wildlife Program, with funding secured for the first year and anticipated for an additional four years but will have to be secured on an annual basis. The Assistant Director will be expected to assist in the implementation of this national program at a regional scale covering 10 southeastern U.S. states (AL, AR, GA, KY, LA, MS, NC, SC, TN, and VA), possibly to extend to a larger region of the southeastern U.S. in future years. This position will also assist with implementing a new grant from USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) titled the “Plant it Forward” program, which is a native seed program focused specifically on Tennessee. All work will be coordinated closely with the USFWS Partners Program staff and the Seeds of Success National Curator.
