Are you a compassionate leader with a passion for animal behavior and staff development? NOCO Humane is seeking a skilled Behavior Manager to oversee our dynamic Behavior and Foster/Transfer teams across our campuses in Loveland, Greeley, and Evans, CO.

This is more than a job — it’s a mission-driven leadership opportunity where you’ll shape lifesaving programs, develop high-performing teams, and directly impact the welfare of animals in our care (cats, dogs, chickens, turtles, and more!).

NOCO Humane is an independent nonprofit animal shelter working to further the compassionate, safe, and responsible relationship between animals and people.

The Behavior Manager oversees the organization’s Behavior and Foster/Transfer departments. This position trains and supervises staff and volunteers in all aspects of the behavior program and designs, creates and/or implements behavior, foster, and transfer related programs and protocols. The position supervises three (3) or more staff members directly, more indirectly, plus associated volunteers. The schedule for the position is generally Sunday through Thursday or Tuesday through Saturday with evenings, nights, weekends, on-call and holidays as required. This job regularly travels and works at all organization campuses (Greeley, Larimer, and Weld), offsite adoption locations, transfer partners (in and out of state) and worksites.
