About the Role

HOT JOB - IMMEDIATE OPENING!!!

Culmen International, LLC is currently hiring an Action Officer to support ORS.

The Action Officer will support the management and oversight of radiological security activities on a full-time basis. ORS works in the United States and across the globe in more than 80 countries to protect radioactive sources used for medical, research, and commercial purposes; remove and dispose of radioactive sources no longer in use; and reduce the global reliance on high activity radioactive sources through the promotion of viable alternative technologies.

ORS partners with a broad range of stakeholders including representatives from industry; foreign governments; state and local governments and first responders; international organizations' non-government organizations; and industry associations to achieve its work. ORS conducts a broad range of outreach activities with these stakeholders to promote awareness about its offerings and build support for its mission and strategies.

What You'll Do in Your New Role

  • Receive, process, and coordinate office-level responses to multiple requests for information (in the form of executive "taskers") daily. Prepare and edit documents, briefings, and spreadsheets for consistency/accuracy and consolidate input from multiple stakeholders. This effort varies from day-to-day and includes regular communication (such as daily status updates and other instant messaging) and ad-hoc verbal communication, with any decision(s) being accurately transcribed to email for records purposes.
  • Quickly triage taskers & executive correspondence as they are received and determine if the request pertains to ORS equities or if the office has fulfilled a similar request recently that could be recycled. Otherwise, provide clear direction to the program office's senior leadership about what is needed, adding additional value beyond the content already listed in the tasking from ORS's parent office.
  • Clearly communicate the status of all taskers to the customers being directly supported. Ensure all deadlines are met with federal clearance obtained prior to official submissions.
  • Provide support in analyzing and developing processes/procedures for addressing internal business operations in coordination with the government.
  • Maintain situational awareness on the status of within scope government programs for the purposes of management reporting, integrating workflow, and administrative planning.
  • Organize and maintain historical records of program strategic messaging, priorities, and responses to DOE/NNSA requests and those external to DOE/NNSA (i.e. Congressional, international partners, GAO, OPM). This includes maintaining a thorough understanding of historical messaging (especially at the policy/strategic level) to aid as appropriate.
  • Attend, and organize as requested, program meetings to remain informed about program priorities, policies, and staffing. This will occasionally involve preparing meeting materials, recording minutes, reserving meeting spaces, greeting and escorting official visitors, and/or presenting on behalf of senior executives.
  • Scheduling responsibilities as requested.


Required Qualifications

  • 4-year degree from an accredited university in business administration, public administration, management, international studies, or a related field
