Washington Headquarters Services
9 remote or telework-eligible positions · federal agency
Washington Headquarters Services (WHS) is the Department of Defense field activity that provides administrative and support services to the Office of the Secretary of Defense and other defense components in the National Capital Region. It handles human resources, financial management, personnel security, facilities, correspondence and records, acquisition and IT support for those headquarters organizations, so its jobs are business and administrative rather than operational.
Recent listings have included financial management analysts, a personnel security specialist and a lead personnel security specialist, a human resources assistant, a visual information specialist, an IT project manager, a management analyst serving as a program manager and a correspondence management specialist.
Applying tip: WHS serves senior leadership, so the resume should show experience working to executive timelines and handling sensitive material, and most positions require a security clearance or the ability to obtain one. The clearance guide explains what that involves, and the program management guide covers the analyst roles.
