Project Implementation Coordinator

Position Overview: TFT’s work in Colorado and the Upper Colorado River Basin has provided analytical tools and models to help our partners design water conservation projects and inform state and national policy to address the crisis in the Colorado River Basin. This position will build on those efforts by developing, supporting, and implementing on-the-ground projects. The Project Implementation Coordinator will help TFT, its partners, and Colorado West Slope communities tap into the time-limited funding opportunity provided by water and conservation related investments from the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) to modernize irrigation infrastructure, build drought resilience, and restore ecosystem function in the Colorado River and its tributaries. The position will report to the Colorado Regional Vice President and will work closely with TFT leadership, the Colorado analytics project manager, and TFT’s science and analytics team, grants team, and administrators. Approximately 40-50% of work will be completed in a home office and 50-60% will be completed at project locations as well as at meetings and events with stakeholders.
