Position Announcement & Description

The Vernacular Architecture Forum is pleased to announce the opening of a search for a half-time Program Associate, to assist with the organization’s administration. This is a major step for an organization that has operated almost entirely on a volunteer basis for nearly 50 years. Recognizing that the normal operational demands of our organization have expanded considerably in complexity, the executive committee, after careful deliberation, agreed that the VAF needs the support a staff person can provide.

The Position Announcement linked here lays out the skill sets and experience we think our Program Associate will need to support our current operations and programs. The Position Description, linked here, more fully describes the responsibilities of the role. We will accept applications until October 10, 2025, at which time initial consideration will begin. This announcement is being circulated initially to VAF members with the hope that one among us can bring their understanding of and passion for VAF and its mission to this position.

Jeffrey E. Klee, VAF President
