TREC’s Vision and Mission
TREC has a vision of leaders, organizations and diverse coalitions working effectively for environmental protection, conservation, and sustainability in Western North America. TREC cultivates effectiveness by providing premier capacity-building services, delivered in-depth and over time.

TREC’s Approach
TREC provides coaching, consulting and training in leadership development, staff management, strategic planning, coalition and campaign management, fundraising, fiscal management, and board development. Through site visits, one-on-one consulting, coaching, and training, TREC partners with the organization’s leaders, staff, board, and other key stakeholders to enhance their strengths, shore up any weaknesses, and generally expand the group’s effectiveness and sustainability. TREC focuses our efforts on partnering with our clients to increase the effectiveness of leaders, build more inclusive teams and cultures, and expand the impact, engagement, and diversity of coalitions and collaborations.

TREC’s service engagements range from one or two months to several years. Each organization is unique and therefore our approach is highly customized. By focusing our work entirely in North America’s environmental community, we understand the political and economic climate that leaders face. We also know that groups cannot work in isolation, and we support them in being effective collaborators and having the skills to work with diverse stakeholders. Most of our clients are grassroots organizations, working at the local and state/province-level, some work at a regional level. Because our work is grant-funded, our staff are not required to recruit new clients and bring in consulting fees. Because our grant funding is stable, our staff can focus on innovation and continually improving the services we provide.

Job Scope
The Program Coordinator is part of the Operations Team which provides support to TREC Staff with a focus on programmatic support, event planning & logistics, and other duties as requested. The Program Coordinator is responsible for planning logistics and supporting the participant and staff experience for TREC’s cohort-based training programs (in-person & virtual events) and our in-person biannual staff & Board meetings. This includes researching and seeking out venues in collaboration with the TREC staff and Operations Manager, as well as arranging travel, food & beverage, supplies, and other event logistics. The Program Coordinator is heavily involved in the participant experience as well, working on recruitment, invitations, confirming attendance and distributing participant forms, keeping accurate participant & recruitment information in TREC’s database, and communication with event participants. Additionally, the Program Coordinator assists the faculty in publication and formatting of session materials, and administering 360 Leadership Feedback surveys to participants. Currently, TREC has 6-8 events per year, and this could vary over time.

The Program Coordinator also serves as a key member of the TREC Operations team, and will assist in a variety of tasks, including formatting materials and posting them on TREC’s website, supporting and maintaining TREC’s internal systems, and contributing to the Operations Team’s general support of the organization’s work.
