Organization: Keep Cincinnati Beautiful

About this position:

Keep Cincinnati Beautiful is seeking an individual to manage our bookkeeping responsibilities and other office management duties. This role is expected to manage the bookkeeping of a small (12 person team) non-profit, while taking on some office management responsibilities to create an FTE of 32 hours. This role will take over for our retiring part time bookkeeper while also taking over some office management duties from other staff members. Keep Cincinnati Beautiful’s Environmental Education Program connects individuals with their environment to encourage green habits and inspire future stewards. The Environmental Education Program Manager oversees creation, execution, and evaluation of all KCB’s educational outreach to promote community-wide behavior change. For 42 years we have helped to keep Cincinnati clean, green and beautiful. Our work has grown to meet the changing needs of the city and now includes five programs: Arts, Education, Environmental Services, Great American Cleanup, and Green Space.

We have assembled a talented, creative, and diverse team implementing a range of award-winning programs (a total of 12 FTE). Our high-impact, low-cost strategies leverage in-kind support, volunteers, and partnerships to achieve ambitious outcomes. For every dollar invested, we provide nearly $27 in community benefits. In just the past 10 years we have educated 200,000+ children, coordinated 130,000+ volunteers, planted 100,000+ trees and flowers, and painted 1,000+ buildings. Perhaps our greatest impact is what people don’t see, like, the eight million pounds of litter, 42,000+ tires collected, 7,000+ graffiti tags removed, and dozens of illegal dump sites shut down. On average, neighborhoods, where we are active (over 45 of 52 Cincinnati neighborhoods), experienced a 15% reduction in quality of life crimes, a 27% reduction in blight, and a 45% increase in economic development.
