The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), Alaska Region, is recruiting
to fill vacancies for two Landscape Conservation Cooperative (LCC)
Coordinators and two LCC Science Coordinators. One of each position will
be located in Fairbanks to administer the Arctic Landscape Conservation
Cooperative and one each in Anchorage to administer the Western Alaska
Landscape Conservation Cooperative. Landscape Conservation Cooperatives
(LCCs) are landscape-scale conservation-science partnerships between the

The LCC Coordinator assumes principal responsibilities for initiating,
facilitating, integrating, coordinating, and communicating the work and
activities of the partnership, as well as management of LCC staff and
operations. Work and activities relate to several primary functional

design, conservation delivery, assumption-driven research,
monitoring/evaluation, and organizational performance. For additional

the scientific and technical underpinning of fish and wildlife
conservation strategies, and provides leadership in creating, guiding,

conservation agencies, bureaus of the Department of Interior, USFWS
programs, and other agencies and organizations. For additional
