Job Description
Summary

This posting is open to all qualified candidates.

If you want to use your communication skills to help people make informed decisions about the infrastructure and services that affect their lives, the Wastewater Treatment Division’s (WTD) Community Services group looks forward to meeting you. Our work centers on building understanding, supporting transparency, and ensuring the public has the information they need to engage meaningfully with our projects and operations, even when faced with community opposition. We collaborate across the division to communicate clearly, anticipate concerns, and provide accurate, accessible information. We adapt our approach to meet the needs of diverse audiences and value the perspectives that different communities bring.

As a member of WTD’s Community Services unit, you will support all aspects of the division’s work by helping the public understand our infrastructure projects, operations, and services. You will provide timely, clear information so individuals, businesses, and communities can offer informed input and understand how decisions may affect them. This position supports WTD operations, Executive priorities, and complex multidisciplinary capital projects, planning efforts, and programs. You will also support incident response efforts that focus on protecting the public from sewage spills or other unexpected dangers related to an emergency.

About the Role:
We are recruiting for two (2) Senior Public Involvement Outreach Specialist (Water Quality Planner/Project Manager III - WQPPM III) positions. The successful candidates will plan, manage, and provide field communications and public outreach support for multiple concurrent projects to build or improve large infrastructure facilities, such as pipes, pump stations, and underground storage tanks. They will support projects in the planning, design, and construction phases. Established guidelines or processes may not exist and need to be developed to successfully support complex work. The successful candidates will interact with community members directly affected by construction projects. They will be expected to use diplomacy and tact when working with upset individuals or when facing public opposition in order to gain acceptance of the division’s work.

They will be expected to engage all communities equitably, and will support emergency incidents such as sewer overflows by being available 24 hours a day every five to six weeks on a rotating basis. In this capacity, they will provide field support to protect public health and safety during sewage spills or unplanned repairs of the regional wastewater system.

About the Team:
The Community Services unit advances the values of King County and the Wastewater Treatment Division (WTD) by protecting public health and the environment and providing equitable, inclusive services to residents and businesses across King County. To our agency, success means clean water. It means keeping a promise to the next generation that our beautiful environment will be there for them to enjoy. It also means being accountable to our ratepayers and operating a well-managed agency. We are committed to the principles of equity and social justice. We value diverse perspectives and life experiences in our workforce and are committed to building a culturally diverse and inclusive environment.
