1) The Office of the General Counsel of the Department of Defense is considering candidates for an Associate Deputy General Counsel position with particular responsibilities to provide legal support and advice in the area of the Law of War (or Law of Armed Conflict). The attorney serves in the office of the Deputy General Counsel for International Affairs, which is responsible in the overall areas of national security and international law in support of the worldwide operations and activities of the Department of Defense (http://www.dod.mil/dodgc/ia.html), supporting the senior DoD leadership in these areas, including the law of war. See DoD Directive 2311.01E, DoD Law of War Program (http://www.dtic.mil/whs/directives/corres/pdf/231101p.pdf).
Familiarity with and interest in the law or war, and/or experience providing advice on law of war issues to senior officials, are desirable. This important position is at the more senior range (e.g., GS15); as an alternative to placement as a GS15, a qualified candidate could be considered for placement in the position as a highly qualified expert or as an Intergovernmental Personnel Act (IPA) employee. This position requires a TS/SCI clearance.
For those who receive this notice, we ask that you think about attorneys whom you know who have this particular background/interest and who may be interested in applying and that you alert such attorneys to this opportunity.
