Job description

ABOUT

As a Mass Communication Specialist, it’s your job to tell our story. Use your creativity to educate and inform the public about the achievements of Sailors in America’s Navy.

Travel the world, document military operations and develop high−profile media campaigns. From photography and journalism to graphic design and videography, Navy MCs can do it all. We’re looking for Sailors with talent, originality and who aren’t afraid to think outside the box and see the world in a new way.

RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Develop print publications and multimedia content including video, still images, digital graphics, web products, news and feature stories, blogs and press releases
  • Operate and maintain state−of−the−art photography and video equipment
  • Conduct research and identify target audiences, analyze data and provide feedback to leadership
  • Identify communication issues and come up with solutions based on research
  • Work directly with local news media organizations to release stories and develop public relations campaigns
  • Conduct ship and base tours for high−profile individuals and foreign dignitaries
  • Assist and work within oversight of Public Affairs Officers

SENIOR MC RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Advise and prepare unit commanders for media interaction and press conferences
  • Develop content strategies and create data stories
  • Speak to the press on behalf of the command

PAY AND BENEFITS

From the day you start, you’ll receive:

  • Competitive salary
  • Potential to earn a bonus upon enlistment
  • Free health insurance
  • Free housing
  • A retirement plan
  • Paid training
  • College credit

EDUCATION OPPORTUNITIES

  • Navy College Program and Tuition Assistance

  • High school graduate or equivalent
  • 17 years of age or older

General qualifications may vary depending upon whether you’re currently serving, whether you’ve served before or whether you’ve never served before.

WORK ENVIRONMENT

As an MC, you’ll explore nearly every part of the Navy. You could be overseas on the flight deck of an aircraft carrier, in the field with a combat construction unit or in an air−conditioned broadcast station at a stateside command. Your workplace is as diverse as they come.

While there may be some physical work on a ship or in a station, the majority of the job is mentally and creatively focused. You’ll also need to be comfortable working independently or with a small team and with little supervision.

PART-TIME OPPORTUNITIES

The role above is an Active Duty opportunity in the Navy, however there are part-time roles available. Serving part−time as a Navy Reserve Sailor, your duties will be carried out during your scheduled drilling and training periods. During monthly drilling, Mass Communication Specialists in the Navy Reserve typically work at a location close to their homes
