The Trail Conservancy seeks a charismatic, diplomatic, and visionary CEO to lead the organization into its next chapter of growth and success.
In partnership with the City of Austin, The Trail Conservancy stewards the Ann and Roy Butler Hike-and-Bike Trail and 300 acres of surrounding parkland around Lady Bird Lake—the largest and most complete natural area in downtown Austin. Our mission is to protect, enhance, and connect the Butler Trail for everyone.
We work hard to ensure that the natural habitat of the Trail maintains its native beauty and integrity while enhancing what the Trail offers to visitors and the Austin community. Since its inception in 2003, TTC has invested nearly $25 million in the Trail, including numerous capital improvements, a host of on-Trail programs, and community engagement opportunities. The Butler Trail is now a lush 10-mile urban path in the heart of Austin and receives more than 5 million visits every year. TTC is proud to continue the work of the dedicated citizens that founded and formed the Trail, and ensure that the park that is the heart of Austin beats on.
The Trail Conservancy seeks its next Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to lead the organization through a period of opportunity and growth. This is an incredible chance to advance a high-functioning nonprofit organization to its next phase.
The CEO will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of The Trail Conservancy and driving its mission delivery to new heights.

They will oversee a dedicated team of 17 staff and a $7–10 million dollar budget and report to a diverse and engaged Board of Directors.
