We are {ALL} made of star stuff

Here at GBO, we know that a team of workers from various and distinct backgrounds are integral to achieving excellence. In order to fulfill our missions, we must ensure that our employees have the resources they need to have equal access to opportunities for success and advancement, and feel empowered and encouraged to pursue them. Our goal is to create a work culture that reaches across the social spectrum, holding ourselves accountable for recognizing, acknowledging, and eliminating barriers. We encourage people from all walks of life and social backgrounds to apply for positions within our organizations.

At Green Bank Observatory our staff are empowered and encouraged to speak up when they see a need for change; to talk with each other, and to advocate for changes in policies and practices that aren’t serving all of us.

We hope that Green Bank Observatory has proven, and continues, to be a safe and welcoming environment for all of our colleagues. If we fall short, or if there are changes that we need to make, please let us know.
