They also have Internship opportunities available – apply by December 7.

Conservation International has the call out for not just any old VP candidate – but rather a dynamic Vice President for Conservation Policy to provide strategic direction for CI’s overall involvement in international and U.S. policy and identify key issues, organizations and fora* in which to engage. A relevant PhD or Master’s degree, and extensive knowledge of international policies related to biodiversity, climate change and natural resource management are just part of the required toolbox.

Can I get a price check on aisle three for two Walmart jobs? Specifically, I’m talking about two Director, Federal Government Relations positions in Health/Wellness and Environmental Sustainability. Three to five years’ experience with issue–relevant House or Senate Committee/Subcommittee is what they’re looking for in particular.

Self-described leading consulting firm Avisar has a (again, self-described) fantastic opportunity for a Public Affairs/Media Analysis professional with a secret-level clearance for classified work.
