At the heart of PEC’s success is our belief in the value of partnerships with the private sector, government, communities, and individuals to improve every Pennsylvanian’s quality of life. PEC has four regional offices across Pennsylvania and leads programs and policy initiatives that expand and promote land and water-based recreational opportunities, equitable access to the outdoors, conservation and restoration of water and forest resources, climate mitigation and resiliency, and sustainable development of communities.

Position Summary:

The Water Program Manager is a full-time, exempt position that primarily supports PEC’s water programs focusing on stormwater management, watershed restoration, and community resiliency. This position provides a unique opportunity to meet and collaborate as a PEC representative with government, non-profit organizations, and private landowners at the local community level within the wider Delaware River basin, and, at times, across the state, to implement the programs and learn about the policies that support the restoration and protection of Pennsylvania’s extensive water resources. The Program Manager will work within a dynamic team of professional colleagues who are engaged in an array of educational and outreach projects to promote green stormwater infrastructure (GSI) implementation and enhance climate resilience through watershed restoration planning and project implementation.

The Program Manager will be guided by, and will support and collaborate with, PEC’s Senior Program Manager of Water Programs who serves as the team lead for projects in Southeastern Pennsylvania. Together, the Program Manager and Senior Program Manager will advance educational, planning, and technical initiatives in the region.
