Job announcement from the Council of State Archivists [Please excuse cross
postings]
Project Manager, Intergovernmental Preparedness for Essential Records (IPER)
Project Morrow, Georgia (suburban Atlanta)
http://www.statearchivists.org/prepare/iper/applicants.htm
The Council of State Archivists (CoSA) is seeking a Project Manager for its
Intergovernmental Preparedness for Essential Records (IPER) Project. CoSA
has received $2.6 million from the Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) to support this large-scale, 3-year project to develop and deliver
training on records-related emergency preparedness to state and local
government agencies.
The IPER training program will focus on two topics: (1) Vital (Essential)
Records, and (2) Records Emergency Planning and Response. The IPER courses
will be delivered by training teams based in each state and territory and
made available in two formats: as Web-based seminars (webinars) and as
self-directed training modules via CD or the Web. A self-directed
Introduction to Records Management will also be made available via CD and
the Web. Teams from each state will be trained to deliver these courses
through a combination of online instruction and 10 in-person institutes to
be held regionally throughout the U.S.
The Project Manager will manage day-to-day operations of this project under
the direction of the CoSA Executive Director and the Director of the Georgia
Archives who is also chair of the IPER Advisory Board. S/he will coordinate
activities with teams from all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and the
territories composed of representatives from the state archives and records
management programs, the Chief Information Officers' staff, the state
emergency management agencies, and local governments. The position will
require a significant amount of travel.
The Project Manager will supervise two additional project staff members-a
curriculum coordinator and an administrative assistant. The IPER project
staff will be stationed at The Georgia Archives in Morrow, Georgia, a suburb
of Atlanta.
This is a full-time, contractual appointment that will begin as soon as
possible (but no later than May 1, 2008) and run through at least September
30, 2010.
Compensation
The Project Manager will be paid $275/day ($68,750/year) during the first
year of the project with 5% cost of living increases in years 2 and 3. As
contractual employees, project staff will not receive fringe benefits (e.g.,
health or life insurance, retirement plans) and must cover their own Social
Security payments. No relocation expenses will be paid.
A more detailed description of responsibilities and qualifications is
available on the CoSA website at
http://www.statearchivists.org/prepare/iper/applicants.htm.
