Duties

This is a permanent, full-time, Career-Seasonal position, subject to non-pay up to 1 pay period (2 weeks) each year, scheduled between mid-July and late-July. Career-Seasonal appointments include the same benefits as year-round Career appointments, but do not provide work on a year-round basis.

Major Duties:

• Assist with performing administrative and operational work in support of tracking financial information and evaluating commercial operators.
• Assist with monitoring commercial services and special park uses to determine if they meet requirements and regulations.
• Communicate orally about technical concepts for an audience with varied viewpoints.
• Compose formal written documents, reports, and correspondence related to concession contracts and Commercial Use Authorizations (CUA).

Physical Demands: Concession facilities include (but are not limited to) front and back of the house locations at hotels, commercial kitchens, restaurants, retail facilities, warehouses, employee housing, stable operations, marinas, and assigned landscapes. While some work is performed in an office setting, the position requires familiarity with park resources and concession facilities and services which may require hiking on park backcountry trails, overnight stays in the backcountry which require carrying a heavy backpack, horseback riding, bicycling, rafting, extensive walking, etc. There may be some requirements to travel on water vessels and small aircraft. A current driver's license may be required.

Working Conditions: For work conducted in the office environment, the risks include those typically found in an office environment. Normal safety precautions typical of such places should be observed (e.g., use of safe work practices with office equipment, avoidance of trips and falls). Travel within and away from the park area may be necessary and frequent in order to provide support for the program for the purpose of attending meetings, training programs, conferences, and site visits. For work conducted in the field, the risks involve those typical for visitors of the Park, and may include confrontations with wildlife and exposure to the elements. Depending on the Park, risks may involve those customary when working with or riding horses, being a passenger on a boat, working in and around historic structures, hiking on challenging terrain, and being a passenger or driver of a motor vehicle.
