Full-Time, Exempt About the Central park conservancy

Central Park is one of the world's most famous urban public spaces, beloved by New Yorkers as “NYC’s backyard.” Designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux in 1857, the 843-acre Park was the country's first purpose-built public park, created to welcome New Yorkers from all walks of life, and is a National Historic Landmark.

The Central Park Conservancy, a private, not-for-profit organization, was founded in 1980 to rescue the Park, which had fallen into serious disrepair. Since then, the Conservancy has overseen the investment of approximately $1.6 billion in the restoration of the Park, which now welcomes over 40 million visitors a year. The City of New York has formally entrusted the care of the Park to the Conservancy, which is responsible for every aspect of its care, including landscape maintenance, capital improvements, and the visitor experience.

Today, the Conservancy's mission is to preserve and celebrate Central Park as a sanctuary from urban life. Committed to sharing the best practices in urban park management, the Conservancy also serves as a resource for other New York City parks, as well as public-private partnerships worldwide.
