The management responsibilities associated with the position are critical due to the high-profile and complex nature of sustainability initiatives and programs and carrying significant financial, compliance, and public relations risk. DS oversees staff with highly specialized functions and is responsible for an annual unit operating budget with funding from multiple sources.
