US-based Mesoamerica Program Manager
LightHawk, a nonprofit environmental aviation organization operating in North and Central America, is seeking a US-based Mesoamerica Program Manager to support conservation efforts in Mexico, Belize, Guatemala, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Panama. 
Providing perspective from the air, LightHawk gives its passengers the chance to see for themselves the widespread effects of unsound environmental policies and practices. Further, the aerial platform provides groups with the opportunity to gather scientific data and photographic images in support of conservation. For example, LightHawk flights enable passengers to serve as expert witnesses or document evidence for court cases; write informed articles for media campaigns; take photographs to assess land conditions; and survey habitat needed to protect endangered or threatened wildlife. 
The Mesoamerica Program Manager (“PM”) works with LightHawk's conservation partners and volunteer pilots in Mexico and Central America to develop, coordinate, support, track and report on high-quality environmental flight missions, under the supervision of the Director of Programs (“Director”).  The PM must be fluent in both Spanish and English, and be knowledgeable about cultural as well as environmental issues and organizations throughout the region.  An understanding of general aviation is preferred, but not essential.
