The incumbent will support the Trails Unlimited Enterprise team by providing support to all trails related projects that the team enters into. Incumbent will need to be SWECO Trail Tractor qualified, be certified in the operation of ATV’s, motorcycles and chainsaws and possess a Class A commercial driver’s license. Incumbent will be required to work in a field environment on rough uneven terrain in varying weather conditions. The team’s emphasis is on partnerships and the delivery of seamless customer service for the public. This position will require extensive travel and working with a large, diverse group of people. The incumbent must be flexible to change on a daily basis. The Enterprise Unit is funded totally from project work, which can cause priorities to change rapidly, depending on customer needs. While “enterprising” is demanding, it is also exciting. If you have high energy, hard drive and are seriously interested in being a part of improving the business we call “government” this may be the job for you! Additional Information: If you are interested in receiving more information about the position, please email chutchison@fs.fed.us About the Enterprise Program The Enterprise Program was initiated in 1997 by the Region 5 as part of the National Performance Review. The program was created to support increased productivity and effectiveness through implementing business practices within a Government structure. The program has become national in scope. Some of the key aspects outlined within the program area are: Enterprise Program Offers a New Way of Doing Business Enterprise Units are Forest Service resources that offer an internal choice for the accomplishment of the agency’s work. These teams of dedicated Forest Service employees operate as independent, financially self-sustaining units funded by the clients/customers who benefit from the products and services they offer. There are currently 17 Enterprise Units offering a wide range of offerings and employees located across the nation. As the Enterprise Program enters its second decade exciting changes are in the wind. Financial Accountability — Enterprise Units receive no direct appropriated funds and must be completely self-sustaining financially. As such, unit members develop heightened awareness of costs, delivery of quality, and gains in efficiencies. Work with a Purpose — Enterprise Units do not work for profit like commercial businesses. They work for the purpose of contributing to the Forest Service Mission, and through their training and experience exercise a discriminating awareness of effectiveness and efficiencies. Spreading Cost Awareness — Forest Service units that utilize enterprise services frequently are exposed to how enterprise recognizes expenses and calculates rates of cost recovery used to estimate project costs. This begins the expansion of true cost recognition beyond the nucleolus of enterprise. Intranet Internet |
