The Air District is accepting applications for the position of Senior Staff Specialist in the Strategic Incentives (SI) Division. This is an open recruitment for two (2) full-time, represented position. The Senior Staff Specialists will be assigned in either the AB617 position or in the Program Lead position.

The Strategic Incentives Division supports the Air District’s mission by managing incentive funding that is awarded to eligible projects that achieve voluntary reductions of air pollutants and greenhouse gases, primarily from on- and off-road vehicles and equipment that operate in the Air District’s jurisdiction. Annually, the Strategic Incentives Division administers more than $90 million in new revenue to fund programs and projects that replace older diesel-fueled vehicles and equipment such as school and transit buses, marine vessels, locomotives, trucks, construction equipment, agricultural equipment, and other mobile equipment, with newer, cleaner alternatives, including zero-emission technologies, and install refueling/charging infrastructure that supports the accelerated adoption of zero-emissions vehicles and equipment. Other examples of programs administered by staff in Strategic Incentives support the reduction of single-occupancy vehicles, provide cash and mobility options to residents for turning in their older vehicles, and provide grants to reduce pollution from wood burning devices. The Strategic Incentives Division also works to develop and implement incentive programs to meet community identified strategies for reducing air quality disparities and that benefit the Bay Area’s most overburdened communities
