What will I do in this position if hired?

You will also support the Maui Long-Term Recovery Office Planning Section Chief by supervising various functions and personnel of the Planning Section to support survivor-centric recovery outcomes for affected Hawaiian communities.


Typical assignments include:


Supporting the Planning Section Chief by supervising and coordinating a diverse team of personnel including first-line supervisors, specialists, and collaborative planning team members who may be comprised of State, Local, and/or Federal partners.

Ensuring all Planning Section plans, products, and/or communications are tailored and delivered in a manner which meets the needs of all internal/external stakeholders.

Fostering communication, collaboration, and coordination via a "whole community approach" to engaging all stakeholders and partners supporting Hawaii wildfire recovery efforts.

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.
