ICITAP Global Program Advisor

The Department of Justice’s International Criminal Investigative Training Assistance Program (DOJ/ICITAP), in partnership with the Department of State’s Bureau of Counterterrorism (DOS/CT) is implementing several programs across the ICITAP Counterterrorism Operations Unit focused on the following lines of efforts: - Strengthening the counterterrorism operations of partner nations by increasing the participation of women in CT law enforcement units through strategic tactical and leadership training - Building responsive and effective prison management systems to repatriate, rehabilitate, reintegrate, and prosecute foreign terrorist fighters - Continuing efforts to strengthen bilateral and regional capacity for countering malign Iranian influence and Hizballah’s activities. DOJ/ICITAP is seeking an advisor who will be responsible for engaging partner governments to achieve these objectives: (1) strengthen the abilities of partner governments to detect, deter, and respond to terrorism and violent extremism by providing targeted technical, tactical, and leadership training; (2) support organizational change that recognizes the strategic value of women’s participation and leadership in law enforcement counterterrorism efforts; and (3) promote the sharing of best practices related to counterterrorism investigations. This advisor will also provide professional training to partner governments that tailor country specific strategies to promote lasting change from within an agency that will ultimately contribute to the operational effectiveness in combatting transnational crime and terror. This program operates globally, and traveling is expected.
