What is this career opportunity?
Montana law, see MCA , gives citizens the right to inspect any "public writings" of the state except where prohibited by statute. Further bolstering Montana's culture of open records, the state Constitution stipulates, "No person shall be deprived of the right to examine documents." Requests for public records, also referred to as Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, have significantly increased in number and complexity.

The Department of Administration is seeking an individual to manage requests for information as afforded under Montana public records laws. The incumbent will directly support and assist specialist attorneys and generally engage in the following duties:
While this position primarily serves the Office of Public Information Requests, there will be opportunities to support specialist attorneys in other areas of the Department such as: procurement, construction and human resources.
