Successful Candidate Profile

• 4-year degree
• Previous experience that illustrates that you have the skills below:
  • Project and time management skills because this job has many moving parts.
  • Technical writing skills because most presentations are about chemicals and industry processes.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills so you are understood by community members without expertise in the subject matter.
  • At least intermediate level Excel skills because you will prepare annual emissions and safety reports with many categories of data from 43 plants.
  • Data interpretation skills.
  • Event organization expertise because you will help set up 9+ meetings a year that include dinner for 65+ attendees and varying venues.
• The ability to act neutral in a group that deliberately brings together people with different backgrounds and views about industry.
• Time to devote to a part-time job of 25-30 hours per month. Work occurs at various times during many days of the month, so it is not feasible for someone with a full-time job.
• Availability to attend monthly meetings from approximately 4:00 – 8:00 p.m. on 1^st Tuesdays except for June and July. January date may vary due to holidays (Jan. 12 in 2023).
