  • Support front-office administrative activities as required, including meeting coordination, calendar and conference-room support, organizational rosters, contact lists, and personnel onboarding or offboarding actions.
  • Safeguard classified and sensitive information and perform all duties in accordance with applicable Special Access Program, Sensitive Compartmented Information, records-management, and office procedures.
