Fire Science Outreach Specialist, California Fire Science Consortium

Fire Science Outreach Specialist – California Fire Science Consortium

Research and Outreach Specialist positions
The Stephens Wildland Fire Science Lab (https://nature.berkeley.edu/stephenslab/) and Collins Landscape Fire Dynamics & Forest Management Lab (https://nature.berkeley.edu/collins_lab/) at UC Berkeley are jointly seeking multiple fire ecology/fire science specialists to begin work in early 2023. Among these are a fire science outreach and leadership position with the California Fire Science Consortium.

The California Fire Science Consortium (part of the Joint Fire Science Program's Fire Science Exchange network) is a network of scientists and managers in California and Nevada that strives to accelerate the awareness, understanding, and adoption of wildland fire science information by federal, tribal, state, local, and private stakeholders within ecologically similar regions.

Our mission is to be an inclusive, neutral, customer-driven collaborative group that facilitates the flow of fire science information and dialogue. The consortium includes approximately 10 people state-wide and the person hired at UC Berkeley would coordinate their efforts and also provide key leadership to the program (https://www.cafiresci.org/).

Further details on the announcement and application instructions are available at: https://aprecruit.berkeley.edu/JPF03698

The first review of applications will begin in mid-December 2022, with the desired start date of February through May 2023.
