• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
• Ability to independently manage multiple assignments and meet deadlines with minimal supervision.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Ability to work effectively with Government personnel, contractors, and other stakeholders.
Desired Skills:
• Experience supporting the Department of Defense or another Federal Government organization.
• Experience using the Defense Agencies Initiative (DAI).
• Experience using the Standard Accounting, Budgeting, and Reporting System (SABRS) or another DoD financial management system.
• Experience using Advana or comparable DoD data and analytics platforms.
• Experience using Enterprise Task Management Software Solution (ETMS2) or comparable DoD task-management systems.
