Position Summary 

The Production Coordinator is a detail-driven, creative team member who helps bring West Virginia Rivers Coalition’s work to life. This role supports the day-to-day production of clear, compelling communications that help people understand what’s at stake and how they can take action.  

 You will work closely with the Communications Manager, who you report directly, to create and refine materials across platforms, from digital content to print pieces to video. You’ll also coordinate regularly with program and campaign staff across the organization, and occasionally with community partners, donors, and other stakeholders to gather content and align messaging. This is a hands-on role for someone who notices the small things (extra spaces, inconsistent fonts, a missing caption), values strong design, and takes pride in producing polished, accurate work. 

The Production Coordinator helps keep projects moving, ensuring brand consistency across materials, and strengthens how our stories are told across West Virginia.
