When I get an email asking me to post to this blog, it tells me that they are casting a wide net and you have a good chance of being competitive. If you don't want to move to Denver, you can wait for the local emergency manager to quit, get fired, retire or die in the position. Being mobile and going where the jobs are is your greatest leg-up on others.
"Just wanted to let you know about two Emergency Management Coordinator positions opening up with the City and County of Denver’s Office of Emergency Management:
1) Full-time, general fund, permanent Emergency Management Coordinator to manage our Continuity and Critical Infrastructure programs

2) Full-time, grant fund, term-limited Emergency Management Coordinator to manage our regional Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) Emergency Logistics program

Eric here again. Don't worry about the term-limited nature of the grant funding — unless they know the funding is going away soon. Get in there, do a great job and you will have other employment opportunities in the region. On this last one, remember this quote, "Logistics, if it was easy — it would be called taxes."
