Position Summary

The Senior Records Manager will support DISA's Records and Information Management (RIM) program at Fort Meade, Maryland. This individual leads the modernization, compliance, and day-to-day execution of the agency's records management program, working directly with the DISA Records Officer to ensure records are created, maintained, dispositioned, and transferred in full accordance with federal mandates.
