Director

We are pleased to assist our client, the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) in finding their next Director. Based in Jefferson City, MO, MDC’s work began in 1937, when citizen-led efforts created the Department of Conservation to restore, conserve and regulate Missouri’s over-stressed fisheries, forests, and wildlife populations. MDC protects and manages the fish, forest, and wildlife resources of the State and provides opportunities for all citizens to use, enjoy, and learn about these resources. MDC’s dedicated staff, working with volunteers and partner agencies, have made Missouri a national leader in fish, forest, and wildlife management.

This role reports directly to the Commission and will be responsible for all MDC programs and services necessary to protect and manage the State’s fish, forest, and wildlife resources; serve the public; and provide opportunity for all citizens to use, enjoy, and learn about fish, forest, and wildlife resources. The Director will oversee eight direct reports which include: Deputy Director, Business & Operations; Deputy Director, Resource Management; Deputy Director, Engagement; General Counsel; Internal Auditor; Human Resources Branch Chief; Assistant to Director, Operational Excellence; and Commission Secretary/Executive Assistant.
