Duties

What will I do in this position if hired?

In this Transportation Specialist position, you will serve as a staff transportation action officer by performing a variety of functions including analyzing requirements, and scheduling and tracking movements supporting disaster objectives.

.

Typical assignments include:

  • Providing technical advice and assistance to the Logistics Management Directorate staff, Regional staff, and disaster management staff on all matters associated with transportation operations and movement management.
  • Reviewing new/proposed transportation policies and procedures, as well as changes to existing regulations and their impact on transportation personnel, operations, and funding.
  • Proposing and assisting in the development of automated procedures to collect movement and cost data used in making transportation management decisions.
  • Scheduling and tracking movements based on requirements.

What else do I need to know?

At FEMA, our mission is to help people before, during and after disasters, and every employee at FEMA has a role in emergency management. Every FEMA employee has regular and recurring emergency management responsibilities, though not every position requires routine deployment to disaster sites. All positions are subject to recall around the clock for emergency management operations, which may require irregular work hours, work at locations other than the official duty station, and may include duties other than those specified in the employee's official position description. Travel requirements in support of emergency operations may be extensive in nature (weeks to months), with little advance notice, and may require employees to relocate to emergency sites with physically austere and operationally challenging conditions.

This announcement is for a position as a CORE (Cadre of On-Call Response/Recovery Employee). CORE employees are full-time employees hired to directly support the response and recovery efforts related to disasters. Appointments to CORE positions are typically between two years and four years in duration and may be renewed based upon workload needs and funding availability. Employees are hired under the Robert T. Stafford Act and are excluded from the provisions of title 5, United States Code, governing jobs in the competitive service. They can be hired under a streamlined process instead of a competitive process. After three years of continuous service, Stafford Act employees may be granted competitive eligibility to apply for permanent full-time positions at FEMA.

FEMA is committed to ensuring that its workforce reflects the diversity of the nation. At FEMA, our workforce includes the many identities, races, ethnicities, backgrounds, abilities, ages, cultures, and beliefs of the people we serve.
