Want to learn more about the culture and structure at the Urban Ecology Center? Read on!
We nurture an inclusive, supportive, and collaborative workplace culture. Many of our staff serve on cross-departmental committees for internal and external events, employee engagement, our equity, dignity, and justice (EDJ) focus, and safety initiatives, to name a few.
We host a 2-day all-staff retreat each fall, with quarterly all-staff meetings, regular department meetings, and ongoing communication in between. We make frequent use of Slack and utilize the Google platform for email and cloud computing.
UEC staff work on-site a minimum of twice per week at one of our 3 branches, though many choose to work in person more frequently. Several of our roles do not have remote capabilities by the nature of their responsibilities.
UEC staff are automatically members of the Urban Ecology Center with the ability to attend all events at a low or no cost. Children of staff members attend programming, including summer camps, at reduced rates.
Full-time staff at the Urban Ecology Center are offered very competitive medical, dental, and vision insurance rates, a 3% 403(b) matching contribution, 24 days of PTO in year 1 (29 in year 2), 4 additional paid holidays, a UEC membership, and other great benefits.
All team members of the Urban Ecology Center work a minimum of 2 weekend or evening events each year. Our events are a great way to engage with our communities and see our mission in action; examples include Urban Candlelight Hike, Autumn Celebration, and HKE MKE. Some roles may have increased responsibility for event leadership.
Most team members are asked to support our building hours by providing building coverage, which may include opening/closing the building, communicating with staff on-site, and welcoming visitors or guests. You may sign-up for an ongoing shift or provide backup support.
UEC employees will work as part of a team. Divisions include: Strategy & Operations for Community Engagement, Marketing and Communications, People & Culture, Ecology & Education, Development, and Finance & Operations.
In this role, you may participate in UEC circles and committees as your work requires or as your schedule and interests allow. Ongoing committees may include: Ecology, Employee Engagement, Equity Dignity & Justice, Sustainability and more.
All UEC team members should expect interaction with volunteers, members, and youth participants.
