Over Greenbelt Alliance’s 60-year history, we have stewarded this region’s beautiful natural landscapes while promoting the growth needed for thriving communities for generations to come. As a result, today, almost 3.3 million acres of the Bay Area’s nine counties are protected open spaces. Now, the Bay Area’s people, cities, and lands need critical help as our climate dramatically changes. Join our team to help us realize a climate-resilient region.

BE BOLD

Encourage an environment where it is safe to express opinions, bravely engage new ideas, and take smart, calculated risks.

PRACTICE COMPASSION

Recognize, understand, and appreciate the unique perspective and shared humanity of others.

TAKE RESPONSIBILITY

Honor your commitments to yourself and your team, and accept the vulnerability of admitting when you cannot.

MAINTAIN TRANSPARENCY

Foster a culture of trust by sharing information, decision-making strategies, and compensation ranges at all levels.

ADVANCE JUSTICE, EQUITY, DIVERSITY, & INCLUSION

Reflect the complete spectrum of Bay Area residents, ensure equitable processes, and prioritize marginalized and underrepresented communities.
