Mission Statement

The National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC) leads the nation's effort to protect the United States from terrorism by integrating, analyzing and sharing information to drive whole-of-government action and achieve our national CT objectives.

Major Duties and Responsibilities

NCTC's Directorate of Intelligence (DI) was mandated by Congress to be the primary organization in the United States Government for analyzing and integrating terrorism intelligence. The DI provides senior policymakers with integrated and coordinated terrorism analysis and produces the full range of analytic products, including daily Terrorism Intelligence Briefs (TIBs), President's Daily Briefs (PDBs), warning products, short-term and longer-term research, and alternative analysis. The National Counterterrorism Center's Directorate of Intelligence (NCTC/DI) is seeking a highly motivated officer to lead a high-performing team of officers working to combating terrorism in significant security topics.

Qualified candidates can anticipate challenging and rewarding responsibilities driving the IC's understanding of key counterterrorism issues in hostages and detainees. This officer would guide the team's rigorous research, pursuit of information, and collaboration to develop unique and insightful analysis that help policymakers make informed national security and foreign policy decisions.

Additionally, the selected candidate will be expected to:

Manage a professional staff in the planning and production of a broad range of finished intelligence products in support of United States (US) foreign policy and national security objectives and serve as an expert within the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI).

Manage a professional staff in the development and implementation of research strategies that result in the acquisition of key, highly complex, all-source information in support of US interests and policy objectives.

Provide intellectual leadership and strategic direction for the division, manage the flow of taskings, and encourage teamwork and collaboration with counterparts throughout NCTC, ODNI, and the IC.

Lead and develop analysts of varying experience levels and evaluate the performance of analysts from different career services, each with its own unique expectations, opportunities, and performance review systems.

Lead the group's analytic program, ensuring that products incorporate the highest IC tradecraft standards and capitalize on NCTC's unique data accesses and tools.

Recruit, develop, and retain a diverse and highly qualified workforce.

Ensure personnel are appropriately challenged, rewarded, and given the support, tools, training, and opportunities they need to develop and succeed.

Cultivate an inclusive environment that fosters the development of all officers to their full potential.
