Description:
The National Space Intelligence Center (NSIC) is seeking a proactive, self-starting leader to serve as the Director of our expanding Open-Source Program Management Team (OSPMT) in a GG-14 supervisory position. In this critical role, you will oversee two civilian positions and coordinate Center-wide contract efforts to synchronize open source, publicly available information (PAI), commercially available information (CAI), and foreign language capabilities. Your team will be responsible for managing attribution efforts, deploying advanced OSINT/PAI tools, guiding related resourcing requests, and aligning NSIC-wide collections and tasking.

Furthermore, they have a solid background in National Space Intelligence Center, USSF/USAF, and OPM personnel policies, team building, mentoring, and DoD contract management programs. Utilizing mature judgment, experience, and recognized professional standing, this leader is highly skilled at establishing and maintaining effective relationships, negotiating complex issues, and resolving organizational conflicts to drive the mission forward.
