As a Conservation Education Naturalist Intern, you will play an essential role in educating the public about wildlife conservation, particularly focusing on cranes and their habitats. This includes planning and leading daily interpretive tours for various groups, including K-12 schools, community organizations, private groups, and individuals. When not involved with these tours, your time will be spent on informal interpretation to create meaningful visitor experiences. You will also be responsible for scheduling group tours and promoting events like our Cranes of the World Celebration, Good Neighbor Day, and The Great Midwest Crane Fest. Additionally, you will help with other department goals, objectives, and duties, such as developing projects, creating educational resources, and assisting with volunteer coordination. The ideal candidate will have excellent verbal communication skills and the ability to speak persuasively to diverse audiences, whether in person or virtually. Strong organizational skills are key, as you will need to manage projects, track progress, and ensure that deadlines are met. You should be detail-oriented, capable of managing both small and large projects, and demonstrate a strong sense of responsibility and teamwork. A positive attitude and adaptability are essential, especially as you will need to adjust to changes in the work environment and duties. Additionally, you will need to inspire trust and respect, working with integrity and ethics while contributing to a positive work culture.
