The Office of Emergency Management (OEM) is recruiting for two Grants & Projects Analyst Trainee positions, each underfilling a Grants & Projects Analyst 2 role. One position focuses on Preparedness Grants, supporting statewide efforts to enhance emergency management capabilities through federal and state funding. The incumbent serves as a subject matter expert in preparedness grant administration, reviewing subgrant applications, assisting applicants during the review process, and approving or disapproving budgets, modifications, and allowable costs. This role also involves analyzing financial and programmatic reports, conducting on-site and records-based monitoring to ensure compliance with federal requirements, completing required federal reports, and contributing to the development of section policies and procedures. The second position centers on Recovery and Mitigation Grants, with responsibilities that include managing mitigation and disaster recovery funding and supporting the application process for new federal disaster declarations. The incumbent acts as a subject matter expert in recovery operations, including preliminary damage assessments, recovery planning, and coordination of recovery efforts. Like the Preparedness Grants role, this position involves reviewing subgrant applications, approving budgets and modifications, analyzing reports, monitoring compliance, completing federal reporting requirements, and helping shape policies and procedures. Both roles offer a unique opportunity to contribute to Nevada's emergency management infrastructure through strategic grant administration and program oversight. ***THIS RECRUITMENT MAY CLOSE WITHOUT FURTHER NOTICE DEPENDING ON THE NUMBER OF APPLICATIONS RECEIVED.

STATE OF NEVADA
Show moreThe presence of Nevada's earliest inhabitants, beginning about 12,400 years ago, is marked by many petroglyphs and archaeological sites. Baskets, decoys, and ingenious traps are evidence of the resourcefulness of these early people in a harsh and arid environment.
European explorers traveled through Nevada in the early 19th century, but it was not until 1851 that the first settlements were established. An Act of Congress created the Territory of Nevada on March 2, 1861. James W. Nye of New York was appointed Nevada's first Territorial Governor by President Abraham Lincoln later that year. On October 31, 1864, President Lincoln proclaimed Nevada's admission to the Union as the 36th state. The State's first elected Governor, Henry Blasdel, took office on December 5, 1864.
Today, Nevada is the nation's seventh largest state in land area. Several hundred mountain ranges cross its landscape, many with elevations over 10,000 feet. In contrast, the State's lowest point (along the Colorado River) is only 470 feet above sea level. From majestic mountains to desert valleys, nature has endowed Nevada with diverse and unique ecosystems.
The Nevada Legislature has honored the State's natural resources and cultural heritage with a variety of State designations described below.
