Position Description: The Murie Ranch Interpretive Lead & Program Assistant is a seasonal position with Teton Science Schools’ Outdoor Learning Experiences team based at the Murie Ranch, a National Historic Landmark District in Grand Teton National Park (GTNP) that was home to Olaus and Mardy, and Adolf and Louise Murie. The Muries, Olaus and Mardy especially, were key figures in the modern conservation movement, ahead of their time in the fields of ecology, political advocacy and education. The Ranch was the birthplace of the Wilderness Act and other legislation and conversations around the protection of wilderness.
The interpretive lead provides interpretation about the Murie legacy to the general public and Teton Science Schools (TSS) participants, and trains and supports the volunteer docents. This is a dynamic position; a day may include chatting with visitors at the Murie Ranch, leading a formal docent tour of the Murie home, giving an evening lecture on wildflower ecology and reading up on the history of the Muries. The interpretive lead is the public face of the Murie Ranch, available and willing to answer questions from the general public as well as participants staying at the Murie Ranch. This position will also support other TSS staff when they are leading programs at the Murie Ranch. Other duties include providing support and instruction for residential education programs and other Murie Ranch events including the annual Spirit of Conservation Award and the weekly evening lecture series.
The Murie Ranch, located near GTNP headquarters, is home to rustic and historic buildings that require care and upkeep throughout the season. We are a small, tight-knit team at the Ranch with varying responsibilities and have a culture of all pitching in to get the work done including washing dishes and light facilities work such as changing light bulbs.
