REQUIRED SKILLS
Experience: You have enough professional or non-professional experience with advocacy work (via nonprofit or political campaigns, grassroots activism, environmental or climate activism, or other forms of activism) to demonstrate that you have a strong understanding and detailed knowledge of how to effectively drive systems transformation.

Keeping Washington Clean and Evergreen
The Air Quality Program (AQP) is looking to fill two Cap-and-Invest Market Planner (Environmental Planner 2) positions. Both positions will be located at our Headquarters Building in Lacey, WA subject to Ecology’s telework policy.
During Healthy Washington Roadmap to Recovery, employees are working a combination of in-office and/or telework based on position and business need. This position is not currently required to work in the office on a regular basis . Ecology is following current state guidance regarding mask requirements, health screening questions before entry, and social distancing. Looking ahead, Ecology has recently updated the agency policies on telework and flexible and compressed work schedules. Applicants with questions about position location options, telework, and flexible or compressed schedules are encouraged to reach out to the contact person listed below in “other information.” The mission of the Air Quality Program (AQP) is to protect and improve air quality in Washington and to protect our State’s environment for current and future generations. Washington is in the process of building an economy-wide cap and invest program, and Air Quality’s newly created Climate Commitment Act Implementation Group is leading the design and implementation of this program. As part of the cap and invest program, businesses and entities will be required to obtain allowances tied to their emissions, which can be bought, sold, and traded. This market will begin in 2023, and the proceeds will be invested in initiatives to decarbonize transportation and other sectors of the economy, promote clean energy, and advance equity and environmental justice. In supporting the unit’s work on allowance trading and entity education, you will help ensure firms can effectively participate in the cap-and-invest marketplace. By helping firms get comfortable with this new market and how it works, you’ll enable them to devote their time and resources to decarbonization - helping Washington achieve its goal of total carbon neutrality by 2050. In supporting the unit’s work on auctions, you will help coordinate and implement allowance auctions that firms participate in to meet their emissions compliance obligations. These auctions are the linchpin of the cap-and-invest program and generate significant proceeds that are applied towards the decarbonization of the transportation industry, improving access to clean energy, and advancing health equity and environmental justice. In this role, you will support the work of two staff leads in the cap-and-invest Auctions and Market Unit. One staff lead is focused on allowance trading and entity education, and the other lead is focused on allowance auctions. The Auctions and Market Unit helps bring companies into the cap-and-invest program, facilitates allowance auctions and trading, and safeguards the cap-and-invest program’s integrity through ongoing market surveillance. You will also be involved in outreach to similar programs in other jurisdictions (e.g., California and Québec), external agencies, stakeholders, and the Western Climate Initiative, Inc. For more details on job duties and qualifications, please see below. Protecting Washington State's environment for current and future generations is what we do every day at Ecology.

Maintain relevant inhouse recruiting metrics, including client satisfaction surveys for each recruitment. Produce reports on hiring demographics such as minority, veteran, disabled and gender percentages per hire, time and cost to fill.
Populate best-in-class applicant lists in PeopleSoft. Ensure that PeopleSoft fields are populated to capture cost and activity data, contact notes, and reference information. Add screening notes and reject applicants in PeopleSoft when final candidate is selected and accepts the position.
As assigned, directly source diverse talent through personal networks, LinkedIn, web searches, social media, job boards, associations, university career sites and other sources for select positions.
As assigned, screen online resumes in PeopleSoft, reject those who do not meet qualifications, and discuss those whom the Executive Search Team should personally phone screen.
Attend online events to learn new sourcing tools and techniques, especially those related to finding diversity of talent.

YOUR POSITION WITH TNC
The Talent Research Assistant plays an important role in providing support to the internal Executive Search Team as it identifies a wide diversity of top candidates and moves to the final interview and offer stages of the executive search process. The Research Assistant provides administrative and tracking support while helping to implement targeted diversity sourcing initiatives, leveraging organizational and social networking sites, and using other recruitment tools and techniques to find passive and diverse talent for senior level positions. This individual is an integral part of the People Team’s Executive Search Team function and is instrumental in helping to support the team’s efforts in developing a pipeline of qualified individuals for the future and in providing diverse candidate pools to fill current vacancies.
ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS
The Talent Research Assistant will join internal “kick-off” and debrief calls with hiring managers and the Executive Search Team, organizes the interview logistics process, assists in daily recruiting project management, develops the internal Executive Search Team intranet page, and monitors new job requests as they are submitted. The Research Assistant uses creative sourcing techniques to identify a diversity of top talent for senior level jobs, difficult to fill and/or growth positions within the organization. The Research Assistant practices more than simple name generation, but rather develops and assesses potential applicants for adequate experience and qualifications, including analysis of nontraditional career paths and types of prior experience that meet our required qualifications (finding the needle in the haystack). The Research Assistant employs sourcing and data mining methods, including Boolean searches, a variety of search engines, internal sourcing, and external job board searches. The Research Assistant also builds relationships with professional associations and universities, as well as uses social networking sites such as LinkedIn that allow individuals to post online professional resumes and profiles.
Duties include but are not limited to: writing, posting and advertising jobs; tracking costs; researching and sourcing prospective applicants and qualifying individuals for a wide range of executive-level positions; updating applicant records in PeopleSoft; corresponding with job applicants; providing logistical support for interviews and meetings; preparing correspondence and presentations; editing and formatting documents; preparing materials for conferences and update meetings with the hiring teams; developing content for, and improving and maintaining the internal Executive Search Team Intranet page; answering general job inquiries; and ensuring confidentiality with all HR-related matters.
