  • Document counseling, instruction, assessments, referrals, and completion status accurately and on time in the designated system of record. 
  • Coordinate with Transition Counselors, CIMs, installation personnel, and partner organizations to ensure integrated support and continuity of care. 
  • Support virtual, in-person, mobile, and surge delivery based on regional workload and client demand. 
  • Maintain professional credentials and complete all required training, quality reviews, and continuing education. 

Minimum Qualifications

  • Knowledge of financial readiness fundamentals and financial considerations affecting Service members and families during transition. 
  • Ability to deliver effective individual counseling and group instruction in both in-person and virtual environments. 
  • Strong judgment, communication, documentation, confidentiality, and customer service skills. 
  • Ability to obtain and maintain required Government suitability, installation access, Common Access Card, and system access. 

Preferred Qualifications 
  • AFC®, CFP®, ChFC®, CPA, or another nationally recognized credential relevant to financial counseling or planning. 
  • Experience supporting military financial readiness, personal financial management, transition assistance, veterans, or military families. 
  • Knowledge of military compensation, retirement, survivor benefits, VA benefits, education benefits, and post-service financial planning.
