Lead the world\u2019s authority in mangrove restoration into its next era of global impact.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Location: <\/strong>(Remote) USA<\/p>\n

Applications Due: <\/strong>June 21, 2026<\/p>\n

Salary Range:<\/strong> USD $110,000 \u2013 $140,000<\/p>\n

Mangroves are the hardest-working forests on Earth. They shelter coastlines from storms, provide nurseries for fisheries, and lock away more carbon per hectare than tropical rainforests. They’re also disappearing \u2014 cleared for shrimp farms and coastal development \u2014 at a pace most people never hear about. For 34 years, Mangrove Action Project has trained over 1,000 practitioners across 30 countries to bring these forests back. Our approach \u2014 Community-Based Ecological Mangrove Restoration (CBEMR) \u2014 is the world\u2019s most effective restoration method in the field, and it works because it teaches people to work with nature to restore forests.<\/p>\n

The Opportunity<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mangrove restoration has moved from the margins to the center of the climate, biodiversity, and food security conversations. Funders, governments, and coastal communities are paying attention as never before. MAP \u2014 with its globally distributed team, recognized technical leadership, and decades of partnerships \u2014 is positioned to meet this moment at scale.<\/p>\n

We are hiring a Chief Executive Officer to lead that effort: deepening our field impact, expanding partnerships, and growing the resources and reach we need to match the urgency of the work.<\/p>\n

Position Summary<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) serves as the senior executive of MAP and reports to the Board of Directors. The CEO is responsible for organizational leadership, financial stability, administration, communications, and management of all staff members.
