• Assemble and distribute briefing packets and meeting materials.
• Maintain long-term tracking of topics and agenda items across Governing Board and Executive Committee sessions.
• Support in-person meetings on site, including hybrid technology setup and testing.

• 3+ years of experience taking, editing, and distributing notes or minutes for large or high-level meetings.
• Understanding of wildland fire and research terminology, or a strong natural resources or science background that lets you follow technical discussions.
• Hands-on experience hosting interactive virtual meetings in Teams and Zoom, including polling and voting features.
• Ability to listen, capture, and run technology at the same time without losing accuracy.
• Excellent writing, editing, and organizational skills, with strong attention to detail.
