This is not your standard, strictly-defined bureaucratic role; we are actively building and transforming our workforce, which means you will be operating in a fast-paced, rapidly evolving environment where the playbook is still being written. We need an agile thinker who has the battle scars of operational, transactional HR, combined with the vision of an enterprise policymaker. If you love building structures from scratch, solving complex problems without a map, and directly advising senior military and civilian leaders, this is the opportunity you've been waiting for.

In this role, no two days are the same. On any given morning, you might be developing enterprise-level policy for our Guardian Intern programs, architecting new workforce shaping strategies, or finding innovative ways to leverage hiring authorities and alternative personnel systems. By the afternoon, you could be managing rapid-fire, high-visibility taskers, advising executive leadership on sensitive employee relations issues, or spearheading HR transformation initiatives.

You will serve as the central hub and ultimate technical authority for a massive, diverse portfolio of HR programs. Because we operate at the highest staff levels, the tempo is fast and the due-outs are rapid. We need a proactive problem-solver who can seamlessly translate complex HR regulations into actionable, plain-English solutions that drive the Space Force mission forward.
