Organic Farming Research Foundation is looking for our next Deputy Director and Policy & Programs Manager!
Join a team that envisions a future where organic farming is the leading form of agriculture. Since our founding in 1990, OFRF has sponsored organic farming research, education, and outreach to support organic and transitioning farmers across North America. This work is complemented by efforts to share our findings with policy makers, agricultural institutions, and federal agencies to support broader change and advance the organic sector.
The Deputy Director position reports to the Executive Director (ED) and will provide day-to-day oversight of internal operations including program implementation, human resources, and finance. The Deputy Director will provide strategic and tactical leadership in all aspects of the organization.
The Policy & Programs Manager will conduct in-depth analysis of federal and state funded policy and programs and develop and coordinate legislative and regulatory campaigns to ensure such programs effectively support the needs of organic farmers. This position offers a great opportunity for the right candidate to interact with federal agency staff, political officials, non-profit partners and other diverse stakeholders to advocate on behalf of organic farmers and scientists.
Both jobs are full-time and remote, with a full range of competitive benefits. Visit our Jobs page for more information including a complete description of each role.
