The work spans unclassified and classified environments and requires products that are accurate, accessible, compliant, and ready for government use.

POSITION SUMMARY

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
• Develop emails, memoranda, public messaging, executive summaries, outreach materials, graphics, social-media content, and other communication products.
• Translate complex cyber, critical-infrastructure, policy, and council information into audience-appropriate language.
• Support communication and outreach plans for councils, working groups, meetings, and stakeholder initiatives.
• Coordinate with internal and external stakeholders to gather input, solicit participation, and prepare materials.
• Manage designated mailboxes, acknowledge inquiries promptly, route requests, and maintain inquiry logs.
• Prepare leadership talking points, briefings, announcements, invitations, and post-engagement communications.
• Apply DHS/CISA branding, tone, templates, accessibility, and quality standards.
• Track communication activities and analyze engagement results to improve future outreach.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
• 2+ years experience in strategic communications, public relations, stakeholder engagement, journalism, marketing communications, or graphic design.
• Strong writing, editing, message-development, and client-service skills.
• Ability to manage multiple communications products, audiences, and deadlines.
• Experience coordinating with senior leaders, SMEs, and external stakeholders.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
• Experience supporting federal advisory committees, councils, executive leadership, CISA, or DHS.
• Graphic-design or digital-content experience.
• Proficiency with Adobe Creative Cloud, Microsoft 365, Drupal, or social-media publishing tools.

CLEARANCE: • Ability to obtain and maintain a favorable DHS Fitness Determination (Public Trust/DHS Suitability); U.S. citizenship required.
