Wildfire Clerical Support Operator is a seasonal position providing office-related (non-frontline) support on wildfires during the summer months. Work in trailers that are outfitted as mobile copy centers with computers, copiers, plotters and other equipment to print the maps, incident action plans and other documentation at major wildfires. We work closely with the incident management teams composed of personnel from USFS, BLM, ODF, CalFire, DNR, BIA and other federal and state agencies.
