About the role
This position is located at Extension’s Cheshire County office in Keene, New Hampshire.
The Cheshire County 4-H program manager facilitates the growth of the county 4-H program and life-skill development of 4-H youth, primarily through the coordination and mobilization of 42 community- or topic-based 4-H volunteers who recruit, train, support, and guide youth and families through community engagement activities to prepare youth for life and community. 4-H, the nation’s largest youth development organization, works in local communities to offer youth online and in-person programming through clubs, collaborative community partnerships, afterschool programs, camps, and other educational activities.
N.H. 4-H programs are designed around a pathway model centered on the national 4-H mission areas of STEM/agriscience, civic engagement, and healthy living. 4-H pathways are designed to engage youth in a sequential learning experience, enabling youth to build mastery of skill and knowledge as well as a sense of belonging to their community and world.
This position will have frequent night and weekend programmatic responsibilities due to the nature of working with volunteers and youth events outside of the school day. There is flexibility in fixed times for hours worked weekly to accommodate community realities in programming.

The COA develops and maintains relationships with county administrators, department heads, commissioners and delegation members, and is responsible for facility and equipment management, office budget management, and supervision of administrative assistants, interns and other part-time or temporary employees.
