Fema Reservist information
What is a FEMA reservist?
A FEMA Reservist is a temporary, on-call employee who supports disaster response and recovery efforts. Reservists work intermittently and are deployed to disaster-affected areas as needed. They assist with a variety of tasks, such as conducting damage assessments, coordinating logistics, and providing assistance to survivors. While not full-time employees, Reservists play a crucial role in FEMA's mission to help communities recover from emergencies.
What is a typical deployment like for a FEMA reservist, and how long do assignments usually last?
A FEMA Reservist is typically deployed to disaster-affected locations on short notice and may work in challenging conditions to support recovery or relief efforts. Assignments can vary in length, but most deployments last from a few weeks to several months, depending on the scale of the disaster and operational needs. Work schedules can be demanding, often including extended hours and weekends. Reservists collaborate with other FEMA staff, local agencies, and community members, playing a vital role in assisting survivors and rebuilding affected areas. This dynamic, mission-driven environment provides valuable experience and the opportunity to make a meaningful impact.
What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the FEMA reservist position, and why are they important?
To thrive as a FEMA Reservist, you need a background in emergency management, crisis response, and basic knowledge of federal disaster relief protocols, often supported by relevant experience or training. Familiarity with FEMA's emergency management systems, incident reporting tools, and compliance certifications like ICS (Incident Command System) and NIMS (National Incident Management System) is highly valuable. Strong interpersonal skills, adaptability, and the ability to remain calm under pressure distinguish outstanding candidates. These skills and qualifications enable reservists to effectively assist communities during disasters, work efficiently with diverse teams, and navigate dynamic, high-stress environments.

Reston, VA • On-site
Part-time
Re-posted 6 days ago
Job description
When communities are impacted by hurricanes, floods, wildfires, tornadoes, and other major disasters, recovery depends on more than rebuilding efforts. It requires strong financial stewardship, grants management, and compliance expertise to help ensure recovery funding is administered effectively and reaches the communities that need it most.
At ICF, our Disaster Management team partners with federal, state, tribal, territorial, and local governments to help communities recover and rebuild. We support disaster recovery programs that restore essential public services, strengthen infrastructure, and help communities navigate complex funding requirements following catastrophic events. We are seeking experienced Grant Administrators to join our On-Call Reservist team and support recovery efforts across the country.
This is a U.S.-based, on-call position that may require travel to client sites, field locations, and disaster recovery operations for multi-week assignments.
Why Join Our Reservist Team?
• Support communities during some of their most critical moments of recovery.
• Apply your expertise to meaningful, real-world challenges.
• Gain experience across a variety of disaster recovery programs and geographies.
• Work alongside experienced disaster recovery professionals committed to helping communities rebuild.
• Enjoy the flexibility of on-call employment while remaining connected to impactful work.
About On-Call Employment with ICF

For many professionals, this model provides the opportunity to contribute to meaningful disaster recovery efforts while maintaining flexibility and pursuing other professional interests.
Please provide an updated resume that highlights experience relevant to the qualifications listed below, including grants management, financial analysis, auditing, insurance, disaster recovery, and federally funded programs, where applicable.
What You'll Do
• Review and validate project documentation, invoices, procurement records, and supporting materials for eligibility and compliance.
• Analyze grant, financial, insurance, and project-related data to support funding decisions and program delivery.
• Research and apply applicable federal, state, and program-specific regulations, policies, and guidance.
• Collaborate with project teams and stakeholders to identify issues and develop recommendations for resolution.
• Maintain accurate project records, reporting, and data within program management systems.
• Support grant administration, financial reconciliation, and recovery program operations.
• Provide exceptional customer service and technical support to clients, applicants, and program stakeholders.
• Travel to client and recovery sites, as needed, to support documentation review, project activities, and recovery operations.
Required Qualifications
• 3+ years of professional work experience.
• 2+ years of experience in accounting, finance, auditing, insurance, grants management, or a related field.
• 2+ years of experience using Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Office applications, including functions such as Pivot Tables, VLOOKUPs, formulas, and data analysis.
• Ability and willingness to travel by air and vehicle as required to support disaster recovery operations.
• Valid U.S. driver's license and ability to successfully pass a Motor Vehicle Records (MVR) check.
Preferred Qualifications
• Bachelor's degree.
• Experience delivering grant, financial, or program support for federally or state-funded programs.
• Experience supporting FEMA, DOE, DOT, EPA, DOC, or other federally funded grant programs.
• Experience in disaster recovery, grants management, catastrophic insurance, accounting, auditing, or compliance programs.
