Description:
The 3rd Intelligence Analysis Squadron at the National Space Intelligence Center (NSIC) is seeking a dynamic and experienced candidate to oversee our USCENTCOM/USEUCOM/USAFRICOM Force Employment Flight. The position provides the full spectrum of mission oversight, administrative leadership, and human resources responsibilities for a team of around 10 civilians, military, and contractor personnel.

This candidate excels in applying advanced analytical techniques to resolve complex issues and leverages mature judgment to establish effective relationships, negotiate complex issues, and resolve conflicts.

Key Skills and Abilities:
1. Knowledge of the principles, concepts and methodology of intelligence processes, techniques, sources and reporting mechanisms required for the production of intelligence assessments.
