GIS & Information Systems Administrator with the Great Redwood Trail Agency
- Remote Work in California, California United States
- REGIONAL GOVERNMENT SERVICES
- Sep 11, 2026
- $80,000.00 - $95,000.00 Annually
REGIONAL GOVERNMENT SERVICES

OUR HISTORY Regional Government Services Authority (RGS) is a Joint Powers Authority (JPA) serving the needs of cities, counties, special districts, joint powers authorities, and other governmental entities since 2002. RGS works exclusively for the benefit of public agencies, providing a ready source of support and consulting services to meet the needs of its partner agencies in a broad range of disciplines and to help local governments meet three challenges: Decreasing revenues Increasing demands (and costs) for services, and Loss of experienced staff. Local government leaders knew that these challenges were likely to continue, so agencies would have to work together – uniting not only their voices but their resources to advocate and become more efficient. The idea behind the creation of RGS was to form an agency that would help local governments share expertise and improve efficiencies. This was an emerging need. It did not require that each agency hire full-time staff. With the creation of this JPA, agencies could, in effect, share expertise through a third-party. WHO WE ARE Today, RGS is governed by several member agencies, all with the common goal expressed in the JPA’s MISSION STATEMENT: To provide quality, innovative, cost-effective services exclusively to public agencies. In November 2020, the 5-year Strategic Plan was adopted. Current member agency representation can be found on the Board of Directors page of this website. RGS developed a highly flexible platform of administrative support, benefit plans and programs that could serve the diverse needs of cities, special districts, counties and other joint powers authorities. Flexibility was vital because the needs of partner agencies varied and because RGS services were 100 percent fee-based. Thus, RGS costs have always been able to ramp up or down quickly, as demand changed. To further understand RGS main service lines, please see the RGS Services Brochure or the Services area of the website. To view the RGS Org Chart click here. Regional Government Services Authority was formed under Section 6500, for the purpose of providing local governments with administrative, staffing and advisory services. RGS has now served over 300 cities, special districts, joint powers authorities and other local governments and non-profits that support local governments.

Job Description
Position Description

Are you a GIS professional who gets excited about transforming complex, historic, and sometimes disconnected spatial data into accurate, useful systems that people can actually use?

Do you enjoy building geodatabases, interactive maps, dashboards, applications, and automated workflows that turn technical information into practical tools for planning, operations, land management, and decision-making?

Are you energized by the opportunity to become the in-house GIS expert for a small, collaborative organization, working with significant independence while helping shape how GIS and information systems support one of California’s most unique trail development efforts?

The Great Redwood Trail Agency (GRTA) is looking for a skilled GIS & Information Systems Administrator to oversee and advance the Agency’s GIS and information systems functions.

Apply today!

Note: This is a primarily remote position available to candidates residing in California. The position will work from a dedicated home office with GRTA-provided computer and office equipment.

THE IDEAL CANDIDATE WILL:
Have broad and current GIS expertise including geodatabase administration, spatial analysis, cartography, data visualization, web GIS, mobile GIS, and data-sharing workflows.
Bring strong experience with ESRI products and ArcGIS Online and be comfortable administering and expanding a web-based GIS environment.
Be able to explain complex spatial and technical information clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
Be genuinely passionate and intellectually curious about GIS, geospatial technology, data systems, and the possibilities for using them to solve practical problems.
Demonstrate strong analytical and problem-solving skills including the ability to evaluate source quality, identify discrepancies, investigate root causes, and develop practical solutions.
Have exceptional attention to detail and recognize the importance of data accuracy, integrity, metadata, topology, naming conventions, permissions, version control, and documentation.
Be resourceful and comfortable building processes and systems where a fully developed roadmap may not yet exist.
Exercise initiative and independent judgment while knowing when to engage others, seek input, communicate priorities, and bring issues back to the broader team.
Enjoy working in a small, highly collaborative environment where responsibilities are interconnected and team members support one another in advancing the Agency’s larger goals.
Build productive relationships with staff, consultants, public agencies, local jurisdictions, tribal governments, grant funders, and other partners involved in multi-jurisdictional work.
Be comfortable working effectively in a remote environment, including proactively communicating progress, workload, priorities, challenges, and resource needs.

About Great Redwood Trail Agency

Great Redwood Trail Agency (GRTA) is a public agency established by the Great Redwood Trail Agency Act, Government Code § 93000 et seq., to develop and manage the Great Redwood Trail and discharge the duties of a rail common carrier before the Surface Transportation Board. The GRTA replaced the North Coast Railroad Authority (NCRA) in 2022.

The GRTA’s service area is the former NCRA rail corridor in Mendocino, Trinity, and Humboldt Counties. The rail corridor in Sonoma and Marin Counties was transferred to Sonoma - Marin Area Rail Transit (SMART), who will be responsible for rail-with-trail development for the Southern Segment of the Great Redwood Trail.

Because the organization is small, work is highly interconnected. Team members are expected to take ownership of their responsibilities while also communicating openly, collaborating across functions, and helping one another move the Agency’s larger priorities forward. The environment is well suited to someone who enjoys a high degree of independence but does not operate in a silo.

For the GIS & Information Systems Administrator, that creates a particularly compelling opportunity. GRTA already has a significant body of interesting spatial data and ongoing GIS work. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to turn those resources into durable institutional systems, expand GRTA’s internal GIS capabilities, reduce reliance on consultant-supported GIS functions, and help determine what GIS and information systems can become as the Agency’s work expands.

2. Increasing demands (and costs) for services, and
3. Loss of experienced staff.
Local government leaders knew that these challenges were likely to continue, so agencies would have to work together – uniting not only their voices but their resources to advocate and become more efficient. The idea behind the creation of RGS was to form an agency that would help local governments share expertise and improve efficiencies. This was an emerging need. It did not require that each agency hire full-time staff. With the creation of this JPA, agencies could, in effect, share expertise through a third-party.

WHO WE ARE

Today, RGS is governed by several member agencies, all with the common goal expressed in the JPA’s MISSION STATEMENT: To provide quality, innovative, cost-effective services exclusively to public agencies. In November 2020, the 5-year Strategic Plan was adopted. Current member agency representation can be found on the Board of Directors page of this website.

RGS developed a highly flexible platform of administrative support, benefit plans and programs that could serve the diverse needs of cities, special districts, counties and other joint powers authorities. Flexibility was vital because the needs of partner agencies varied and because RGS services were 100 percent fee-based. Thus, RGS costs have always been able to ramp up or down quickly, as demand changed.

To further understand RGS main service lines, please see the RGS Services Brochure or the Services area of the website.

Regional Government Services Authority was formed under Section 6500, for the purpose of providing local governments with administrative, staffing and advisory services. RGS has now served over 300 cities, special districts, joint powers authorities and other local governments and non-profits that support local governments.
