Duties
NCTC's Directorate of Intelligence (DI) was mandated by Congress to be the primary organization in the United States Government for analyzing and integrating terrorism intelligence. The DI provides senior policymakers with integrated and coordinated terrorism analysis and produces the full range of analytic products, including daily Terrorism Intelligence Briefs (TIBs), President's Daily Briefs (PDBs), warning products, short-term and longer-term research, and alternative analysis. The National Counterterrorism Center's Directorate of Intelligence (NCTC/DI) is seeking a highly motivated officer to lead a high-performing team of officers working to combating terrorism in significant security topics.
Qualified candidates can anticipate challenging and rewarding responsibilities driving the IC's understanding of key counterterrorism issues in hostages and detainees. This officer would guide the team's rigorous research, pursuit of information, and collaboration to develop unique and insightful analysis that help policymakers make informed national security and foreign policy decisions.
Additionally, the selected candidate will be expected to:
Manage a professional staff in the planning and production of a broad range of finished intelligence products in support of United States (US) foreign policy and national security objectives and serve as an expert within the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI).
Manage a professional staff in the development and implementation of research strategies that result in the acquisition of key, highly complex, all-source information in support of US interests and policy objectives.
Provide intellectual leadership and strategic direction for the division, manage the flow of taskings, and encourage teamwork and collaboration with counterparts throughout NCTC, ODNI, and the IC.
Lead and develop analysts of varying experience levels and evaluate the performance of analysts from different career services, each with its own unique expectations, opportunities, and performance review systems.
Lead the group's analytic program, ensuring that products incorporate the highest IC tradecraft standards and capitalize on NCTC's unique data accesses and tools.
Recruit, develop, and retain a diverse and highly qualified workforce.
Ensure personnel are appropriately challenged, rewarded, and given the support, tools, training, and opportunities they need to develop and succeed.

Additional information
Job Interview Travel: Candidates from outside the Washington, D.C., area may be selected for a telephone, teleconference, or in-person interview.
Salary Determination:
The ODNI uses a rank-in-person system in which rank is attached to GS employees on the basis of individual qualifications, experience, and performance.
Individuals whose current GS grade is equivalent to the grade of the advertised position will retain their current grade and step.
Individuals who transfer to the ODNI from a non-GS pay scale will have base pay converted to the appropriate GS grade and step as determined by the Director/ Human Resource Management.
On occasional instances when a current federal civilian employee applies for an ODNI position that is a lower grade than his or her personal grade, the candidate's personal grade will be downgraded to the grade of the advertised ODNI position and pay will be set at the step that is closest to but not less than the employee's current annual base rate of pay, not to exceed the maximum rate (i.e., step 10) of the GS grade to which assigned.
