Administrative Officer

The 0341 job sits between the leadership of an organization and the specialist offices it depends on, so the work is as much about coordination and judgment as about any single administrative function.

Recent listings have included administrative officers at Veterans Health Administration medical centers, the Federal Aviation Administration, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the National Park Service, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and U.S. Attorneys’ offices, supervisory administrative officers, an executive officer, a case manager and an associate deputy administrator.

Applying tip: 0341 announcements usually rate experience across several functions at once, so a resume that only shows one of them, such as budget, will fall short. Describe the size of the organization you supported, the functions you managed and the systems you used. The program management and analysis guide covers the related 0343 series, and the HR jobs guide covers the personnel side.
