Sudbury Valley Trustees (SVT) has launched a nationwide search for a new Executive Director to guide the organization as we pursue our mission to conserve natural areas and farmland in the 36 communities around the Sudbury, Assabet, and Concord Rivers.

Lisa Vernegaard, the current Executive Director, announced her pending retirement in a special e-mail message sent to members in October 2022. Lisa plans to stay with SVT through the end of July.

To replace Lisa, the SVT Board of Directors is seeking an accomplished leader with a connection to nature and the outdoors. The ideal candidate will demonstrate a proven ability in strategic leadership, fundraising, staff management and development, collaborative ventures, and constituency building. The person will also be both a strong and effective leader and have success fostering broad diversity and inclusion among the organization’s Staff, Board, supporters, volunteers, and visitors, thereby ensuring open and equal participation in the enjoyment of SVT’s properties.
