HCA is HIRING!
Regional Engagement Manager
Dripping Springs, TX
Posted: May 19, 2025
Founded in 2005, the Hill Country Alliance (HCA) brings together a broad coalition of partners throughout a 17-county region of Central Texas with the long-term objective of preserving the natural resources and unique character of the Texas Hill Country. HCA focuses on community engagement around stewardship of Hill Country land, water, night skies, and communities. Led by a professionally and geographically diverse board, HCA bridges traditional boundaries (e.g. urban-rural divides) through education and outreach, capacity building, gentle advocacy, and partnerships to ensure a healthy and vibrant Hill Country for future generations.
HCA’s success relies deeply on the relationships, trust, and community-by-community awareness we have developed across the region. We have found that the closer our relationships and presence in a community are, the more impact we can have there. Our Regional Engagement Manager position is established to this end. Specifically, this position will increase HCA’s presence and capacity in the south-central Hill Country – in Bandera, Kendall, Kerr, and Medina counties—where there is still considerable open space, as well as significant development pressures facing small communities. The Regional Engagement Manager will work across HCA’s program areas – Land, Water, Night Skies, Communities, the Texas Hill Country Conservation Network, and the Leadership Institute – in some cases, leading HCA’s work on local initiatives, in other cases, supporting the work of colleagues.
