Company description

Bio-Logical Capital, LLC, is a land investment, development and conservation company.  Our projects deliver lasting value and strong returns because we invest for the long-term and integrate diverse sustainable enterprises with ecological restoration and conservation. We take a whole-systems approach to regenerative land use businesses and design them with a foundation of fundamental ecological principles. Through site visits, stakeholder interviews, ecosystem research and analysis, and community outreach, we create specific plans that fit the people and purpose of each landscape that we work on and for.

Job description Position Overview:
 

Bio-Logical Capital is seeking a Northeast based Senior Manager to join our team. This position will lead the design and implementation of all new east coast project opportunities, as well as oversee all operational, financial, and administrative components of our current east coast projects. Multitasking and flexibility will be critical in this position, as a typical day might include working outside on a farm project with a field based team, facilitating a project stakeholder meeting, meeting with a land owner or investor to tour a project site, or building a financial model to explore a new opportunity. As part of the Bio-Logical Capital executive team, the Northeast Senior Manager will also participate in and help drive company business strategy discussions and planning. 

We are looking for a leader who has outstanding people, communication and leadership skills and who is as comfortable on a project site in work boots as in an office setting delivering an investment presentation. We seek a strategic thinker who has demonstrated experience in financial modeling, business analysis and business planning. We seek a teacher who will inspire teams to excel and who is capable of growing, developing, and overseeing diverse teams to execute complex regenerative land-use projects that include: conservation development, farming, ranching, food production, and hospitality-focused businesses.  We seek a team member who has an entrepreneurial spirit, a deep passion for healthy communities and healthy food systems, and who shares our mission of shifting our culture’s perspectives and values on land use.

This position will preferably be based in Burlington, Vermont, although we are open to alternative locations based in the Northeast for the right candidate.
