Founded in 1968 by concerned Oregonians across the state, the Oregon Environmental Council (OEC) is a membership-based, nonpartisan nonprofit. OEC is the first multi-issue, statewide environmental group in Oregon. Look at any “green” idea that put Oregon on the map over the last 50 years—the Bottle Bill, landmark land-use planning laws, curbside recycling—and you’ll find that OEC was integrally involved as a key collaborator behind these critical protections. OEC advocates for impactful, lasting solutions that get at the source of Oregon’s environmental problems and have real benefits for people’s health and quality of life.

Established in 1968 as the first multi-issue, statewide environmental group in Oregon, the Oregon Environmental Council (OEC) is a nonpartisan nonprofit comprised of concerned Oregonians who are committed to the protection of the air, water, and land. The Executive Director will lead with a genuine passion for the mission of OEC and is excited about joining a team committed to advancing innovative, collaborative, and equitable solutions to Oregon’s environmental challenges.

An emerging statewide water coalition is seeking a Communications & Outreach Director to elevate the importance of protecting Oregon’s water quality and quantity. Housed at Oregon Environmental Council, the position will collaborate with partner organizations to lead the design and implementation of strategic communications and outreach efforts that engage the public and key audiences in understanding Oregon’s water challenges and supporting effective, equitable solutions.
