Reports to: River Clean-Up Team Leader

Direct Reports: No one

Typical Schedule: Full Time - 32+ hours per week. Flexible to meet the needs of the clean-up projects. Workdays may be cancelled due to adverse weather or water conditions.

Reporting to River Clean-up Team Leaders, River Clean-Up Team Crew Members work in teams with the goal of restoring the Western NC rivers to an accessible, safe, and scenic condition for paddlers, commercial outfitters, members of the public, and landowners.

River Clean-Up Crew Members commit to working safely and efficiently while they perform their assigned tasks.

Work will be conducted in a variety of locations (such as along the river itself and on private riverside lands when permitted to do so) and conditions (including extreme cold and heat as well as clear or inclement weather).

The work is extremely demanding and is completed in environments that are potentially hazardous (such as in or on water). While much of the work will be done on foot, River Clean-Up Leaders and Crew Members will also work in boats (rafts, jon boats, canoes, etc.) provided by MountainTrue. River Clean-Up team leaders and Crew Members must be prepared for strenuous tasks including the frequent lifting and moving of objects up to (and sometimes exceeding) 50 pounds, bending, stooping, standing, or sitting for long periods of time.

Collected garbage will be bagged and/or collected and disposed of properly with equipment (trucks, dump trailers, etc.), along with rented dumpsters and other items.

Mountain True will provide the necessary tools and equipment to pick up and remove trash and debris.
