Careers
Do the best work of your life for the place you love most. At NRCM, your knowledge, talent, and passion go straight into protecting the woods, waters, and wildlife of Maine alongside a team that has your back.
Work that matters, with people who care
NRCM attracts extraordinary people from across Maine and the country—people who want to make a difference by protecting Maine’s nature. We bring real passion to everything we do, and the atmosphere, online or in person, is exceptionally collegial. We support one another regardless of title, team, or task, and we value relationships: with lawmakers, community and business leaders, our members and activists, and each other.
NRCM has helped pass first-in-the-nation environmental laws, from a foam packaging ban to leading-edge recycling laws. The work leaves a mark.
A place people stay
Today’s NRCM team is much like our founders, who established the organization in 1959: smart, dedicated, and determined, with a deep love of Maine. Of our 24 staff, six have been here more than 15 years, and three for more than 25. That’s the kind of welcoming culture and camaraderie you’ll find when you join us.
Why you’ll love working here
We invest in our team with fair, competitive pay and benefits that support your whole life:
Health, fully covered
NRCM pays 100% of the employee health premium and 60% for family members, plus a Health Reimbursement Account, flexible spending accounts, and an Employee Assistance Program.
Retirement with a match
A tax-deferred 403(b) with a 5% NRCM contribution and an additional 2% match, after a six-month provisional period.
Real time to recharge
