• Provide technically accurate and scenario-consistent direction to exercise participants to maximize training value.
• Remain within the limits of the exercise scenario and coordinate with the Exercise Lead and on-site Contract Manager to ensure realistic, credible role portrayal throughout each operational period.
• Track and report to the Exercise Lead the number of role players and manikins who pass through the Decontamination Line, categorized by ambulatory and non-ambulatory iterations, including those simulating fatalities.
• Participate in daily hot wash / after-action review briefings and provide input as required.

Qualified candidates must possess the following qualifications:

• Familiarity with ICS (Incident Command System) / NIMS (National Incident Management System) structures and terminology.
• Ability to pass a background check and be listed on the installation Entry Access List (EAL).
• Active EMS licensure (EMT, AEMT, or Paramedic), law enforcement credentials, or coroner/medical examiner experience are preferred and should be noted in the CV.
• Prior experience supporting CERFP, HRF, FEMA USAR, or comparable CBRNE exercises is preferred.
