Date: June 2022 U360 is an innovative experiential education and professional development program for college students, focused on environmental and business sustainability. The two-semester program incorporates applied science, business, and sustainability workshops, career skills training, sustainability assessments of small businesses, and a Capstone project. U360 is offered by Manomet, a science and conservation nonprofit doing research from the Arctic to Patagonia, as part of its efforts to develop the next generation of changemakers. U360 students build their knowledge of environmental issues, the “triple-bottom line” of business sustainability (environmental, social, and governance), and business management through workshops and through direct interactions with industry practitioners and small business owners. U360 offers real-world experience in three vital areas that are critical to effective change-making and career preparation: applying knowledge of practical sustainability, engaging people with different viewpoints, and professional skills, including soft skills highly prioritized by employers. U360 students benefit from intensive professional training and mentoring as they develop their communication, professionalism, teamwork, creative problem solving, and strategic thinking skills. Then, they put those skills into practice as they interview up to 20 small business owners about their current sustainability practices and administer Manomet’s Root360 assessment of their triple-bottom line sustainability. At the end of the program, U360 students select one of the businesses they assessed and create a Sustainability Action Plan for that real business, presenting the plan to a panel of business and sustainability professionals as a Capstone project in a final competition. U360 empowers college students to take action on the environmental, social, and economic challenges that will disproportionately impact their generation, and gives them skills and knowledge they can bring to any job or industry. U360 alumni stand out from their peers when entering the workforce for their exceptional communication skills, their confidence, their professional networks, and their working understanding of small business operations. U360 is more than a class or an internship: it’s a community and a professional network that supports students both during their U360 year and afterwards through our active alumni network. At Manomet, we believe that addressing today’s environmental, social, and economic challenges requires bringing together individuals with different backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. We are committed to working with people who are underrepresented in the field of sustainability and to enrolling U360 classes that have geographic, academic, racial and ethnic, socioeconomic, and age diversity. Participating students have the unique opportunity to meet and work closely with students from other colleges throughout the east coast; becoming part of a network of peers who also want to make a difference in the world.

Reports To: Vice President, Flyways Grade/status: Full time, exempt Department: Flyways Program Are you passionate about the conservation of migratory birds, and have significant experience working at local, national, and international scales? Are you interested in joining a science-based organization focused on delivering full lifecycle conservation, resilient coastal ecosystems, and science education? If so, Manomet is looking for an individual to build on the 35+ years of the Western Hemisphere Shorebird Reserve Network (WHSRN) and help lead shorebird conservation throughout the Americas. Manomet, Inc., is a 51-year-old non-profit based in Plymouth, Mass. committed to science-based decisions for humans and nature. Manomet’s Flyways program houses the WHSRN Executive Office and has done for most of the history of the initiative. The Managing Director of Flyways will play a lead role in Manomet’s efforts to catalyze and coordinate full lifecycle conservation of shorebird populations in the Western Hemisphere. The position has two major foci: 1. Facilitating the delivery of the conservation investment strategies of the shorebird flyway conservation initiatives in the Americas (Atlantic, Midcontinent, Pacific, and Arctic); and, 2. Supporting partners at Western Hemisphere Shorebird Reserve Network (WHSRN) sites in Canada and the U.S., helping to facilitate site conservation action and sharing of experiences. There is a tremendous opportunity for creativity in this portfolio, but the key to success will be an ability to build effective partnerships where all participants succeed. The Managing Director of Flyways will supervise Flyways program staff running projects under the framework of the shorebird flyway conservation initiatives and will be responsible for seeing that there are clear goals and outcomes annually across the Flyways program and for tracking measures of success.
