Project Manager
American Farmland Trust 2.7
Project engineer job in Washington, DC
Who We Are American Farmland Trust (AFT) is the only national organization that takes a holistic approach to agriculture, focusing on the land itself, the agricultural practices used on that land, and the farmers and ranchers who do the work. AFT launched the conservation agriculture movement and continues to raise public awareness through our No Farms, No Food message. Since our founding in 1980, AFT has helped permanently protect nearly 8 million acres of agricultural lands, advanced environmentally sound farming practices on millions of additional acres and supported thousands of farm families. Long a pioneering leader, AFT continues to evolve to meet the needs of farmers and ranchers nationwide, adapting its approach to ensure the continued strength and resilience of agriculture and rural communities nationwide.
Job purpose
AFT's Project Management Division, internally known as the Project Management Team (PMT) has an exciting opportunity to hire a Project Manager for the newly amended USDA-NRCS Advancing Markets for Producers (AMP) initiative within the Climate and Soil Health Division. The successful candidate will have an interest in exploring the strategic alignment of project management best practices in relation to AFT's efforts to catalyze a new conventional agriculture.
Position summary
Reporting to the Project Management Director, the Project Manager leads assigned project(s) from award kickoff to close by partnering with the Principal Investigator (PI), developing and maintaining project resources, monitoring progress, facilitating funder reporting, coordinating communications with appropriate team members, and ensuring the successful execution of committed outcomes on time, within scope and budget. Project Manager assignments are likely to be larger scale, multi-year projects with complex budgets ranging from $700K-$9M annually that involve numerous internal Divisions and external partners.
"The Beef Producer Economic Resilience Initiative: Producer-Led Mentorship & Marketing Network" project was formally a $42 million (including Match commitments) Partnership for Climate-Smart Commodities grant that kicked off in November 2023. However, for AFT to meet the new Administration's priorities with the remaining 3 years of funding, the project is being amended to restart in 2026 and will work to fundamentally transition U.S. beef production to a more resilient, value-added product raised on sustainable grazing systems. Our objectives are to demonstrate and amplify production of beef that builds healthy soils and resilient, economically thriving farm and ranch enterprises by (1) providing significant financial incentives for adoption of rotational grazing and other complementary practices and market entry, (2) building self-sustaining grassroots support networks with early adopters who become highly trained grazing mentors facilitating adoption and provide technical support to catalyze successful adoption, and (3) expanding market drivers and opportunities. In addition to anticipated economic gains from improved soil health, and premiums for more sustainable beef, AFT will provide $19.5M in grant funds directly to 700 farmers and ranchers in the Southern U.S. for mentoring, leading networks, and to invest in the transition directly.
Duties and responsibilities
