FEMA is hiring Advisors for its Alternative Dispute Resolution cadre. These are part-time, intermittent, on-call government positions that support disaster operations with work that closely resembles Organizational Ombuds: assisting with employee and team conflicts, conducting training, facilitating meetings and dialogs, and informing senior disaster management about trends and areas of concern.

Applicants must have substantial experience in mediation, facilitation, and conflict resolution training and the ability to travel for 30 days at a time.  The positions pay $39.57 to $39.57 per hour and applications are due this Friday, March 29, 2013.  Multiple positions may be filled from this announcement.
