The Contra Costa County Office of the Sheriff's Emergency Services Division is offering an excellent employment opportunity for qualified individuals interested in the Community Warning System Manager Coordinator position. Under general direction, the Community Warning System Manager Coordinator serves as the County's liaison with industry representatives and other organizations involved with the CWS; coordinates CWS-related efforts of other County departments; directs the ongoing community education component of the CWS and directs the efforts of related staff and performs related work as required. This position is responsible for the 24-hour operation of the CWS as well as the long-term planning related to integrating the system with the emergency service functions of the County and other government agencies. The CWS Manager supervises clerical, technical, and planning staff; manages vendor contracts; and oversees the development of operational procedures and public education initiatives. A high degree of discretion and independent action while representing the Sheriff and County with private industry and emergency service providers is a significant portion of the incumbent's responsibility. Another major component of the job is the ongoing education of the community to establish both reasonable expectations of what the system will provide and the appropriate response from citizens. The Community Warning System Manager shares on-call responsibilities with the CWS Team and will occasionally be required to respond to EOC activations on weekends, holidays, and night shifts.
