We are a small team of passionate staff who are dedicated to conserving the lands and waters of the Kennebec Estuary for the benefit of wildlife habitat and community recreation.

No matter your job description, you’ll spend time out on the land - perhaps it is exploring a new parcel, completing a stewardship project, researching salt marshes, or educating community members. Our staff will happily nerd out on the neat things you find in tide pools, the best chainsaw safety gear, or intriguing invertebrates you come across in the forest.



KELT is committed to maintaining a workplace environment that is supportive and balanced.

Benefits for full-time employees include:

  • health, dental & vision insurance upon employment. KELT covers the full cost of the monthly premiums.

  • paid time off, including vacation, sick time, and twelve holidays

  • 3% employee matching to our retirement plan

  • remote work

  • paid professional development opportunities
