About Us

We're Hiring!

Join us as a Conservation Assistant.

San Diego Bird Alliance, with strong and growing partnerships, is seeking to build community leaders and restore native habitat through habitat restoration and maintenance projects, and community outreach events in Mission Bay, San Diego Bay, and in the surrounding watersheds. Through community planting parties, school field trips, surveys and other events, we engage with the community, listening to local concerns and empowering leaders to invest in our shared parks. Our habitat restoration projects combine physical benefits to birds, butterflies, and the plants needed to support them, with the community benefits of mutual investment and shared time outside, improving the value of our parks and open spaces.

The Conservation Assistant position will work with multiple agencies including City of San Diego Parks and Recreation Department, US Fish and Wildlife Service, Port of San Diego and various community groups and will learn habitat management techniques as well as event planning expertise. There will also be components of bird and plant identification and biology, all through the lens of a local and well-respected nonprofit organization.

To apply, please email your resume and cover letter to csantamaria@sandiegobirdalliance.org with “Conservation Assistant” in the subject line.
