  • Meticulously catalogue event proceedings and draft polished, final reports for US-Government-sponsored events.
  • Engage directly with experts from academia, think tanks, and the private sector in support of outreach functions and commissioned research.

Required Qualifications:
  • Must be a U.S. citizen
  • Undergraduate degree in regional affairs, international relations, political science, economics, history, security studies, or a related field. Strong academic record.
  • Ability to take copious notes for workshops ranging in duration/theme and draft well-written, polished final reports varying in page-length.

  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office tools, in particular Word, PowerPoint, and Excel.
  • Minimum SECRET-level clearance

Additional Preferred Qualifications [not required]:
  • Graduate degree in regional affairs, international relations, political science, economics, history, security studies, or a related field.

  • Foreign language skills
  • Access to a reliable vehicle for travel-sometimes with passengers-to client sites is desirable (related expenses will be reimbursed).
