NCKRI Job Opening--Advancement Director (Fundraising)

[Cheryl Jones]

The National Cave and Karst Research Institute (NCKRI) is hiring a new Advancement Director. Ann Dowdy has done a wonderful job establishing the foundation of NCKRI’s Advancement Program, but needs to leave for personal reasons. She is able to generously give us substantial advance notice to minimize the time that the position will be vacant. Her successor will continue fund raising for NCKRI and marketing its programs.

I’m sending you this message because of your interest in caves, karst, and NCKRI. While many of you won’t be interested in the job for yourselves, please forward this note to anyone you think may be interested. You are also welcome to post it on websites and in newsletters. The announcement has also been sent to newspapers and various websites. We are accepting applications until 26 April 2012.

The job announcement is posted at http://www.nmt.edu/images/stories/hr/pd ... 22-020.pdf. NCKRI is administered by the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology. The employment application form is at http://www.nmt.edu/images/stories/hr/pd ... nt_nmt.pdf, but it must be mailed, not e-mailed, along with resumes and any other supporting material. The job will be stationed at NCKRI headquarters in Carlsbad, New Mexico. If you have questions, please contact Karla Montoya at kmontoya@admin.nmt.edu or (575) 835-6962. Caving experience or advanced knowledge of caves and karst, while certainly welcome and helpful, are not required for this job. The Advancement Director will play a vital role in generating funds and support to continue building NCKRI’s staff and programs, which includes assisting NCKRI’s friends and partners whenever possible.

Thank you,
George
