What is your job title?
Senior Management Analyst
Describe your job:
I produce and maintain accurate requirements and authorizations documents for Sustainment organizations to include Medical and Personnel Service Support and I provide analysis to enable and inform leadership decisions.
What do you like best about your job?
I get to directly impact the lives of Soldiers and contribute to the greater good of the Army overall.
What is your most memorable and/or challenging experience during your time as a Manpower and Force Manager?
The most challenging part was learning all the nuances of the job to quickly become a productive member of the team. There is no single school to teach the numerous processes and productions of the job so it is a constant learning environment. Luckily the leadership creates just such an environment.
Would you recommend working in this career field to other federal employees?
Absolutely! I consider myself one of the lucky few who actually enjoy my job. I do it every day because there are no words to describe the pride and pleasure I get when a unit in the field calls or emails back to say thanks for the timely adjustment of their documents.
