The Washington National Guard State Historical Society Museum at Camp Murray is hoping to hire our first Full-time employee sometimes this year. This is very exciting for our current all-volunteer staff. The WNG Museum is operated for the WA National Guard by the WNG State Historical Society, a 501-c-3 non-profit. We are recognized by the US Army Center for Military History, the National Guard Bureau, the Washington Secretary of State, and member of the American Association for State and Local History, Washington Museum Association, and the Pierce County Heritage League.

We would like to ask your assistance in our preparing for the process by sharing your best HR practices and documents, i.e. hiring guidelines, job descriptions, job duties and the like. This position will be something like a “Museum Specialist”, or “Assistant Director”. The person will handle all manner of the Museum business from daily operations, “answering the mail”, light book-keeping, guiding walk-in visitors, coordinating new accessions, conducting inventories, overseeing security and more. I don’t have any salary information at this time. Ultimately the hire will be either a Washington State Military Department or Federal Civil Service employee. It is believed they will report to the Chief of Staff or Deputy Director of the Washington Military Department, and coordinate regularly with the Executive Committee (7 officers) of the Washington NG State Historical Society Board of Directors.

If you would like, email or call me at your convenience with questions, etc. Thanks in advance for your help!

Best regards,

Rick Patterson
