Duties
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Office of Strategy, Policy and Plans (PLCY) is a mission-oriented, component-focused organization serving the Secretary, Deputy Secretary and Component Heads to develop policy, coordinate policy positions, lead and organize international engagement and negotiations, develop operational and resource allocation guidance and develop strategies and operational plans. The Office of International Affairs sits within this office and guides DHS leadership, as well as coordinates across DHS components, on engagements with foreign counterparts on key national security issues of shared interest.
PLCY has a Joint Duty Assignment opportunity, to serve as the M5 Chairmanship Coordinator on the Multilateral portfolio. In this role, the incumbent will support preparations for the USG's 2024 Chairmanship of the Migration Five (M5). The M5 was established in the 1980s to facilitate the exchange of information on migration issues of mutual concern across the Five Eyes (Australia, Canada, New Zealand, United Kingdom, and United States). Since then, the M5 has evolved into an action-oriented group that advances collective immigration-related initiatives, including via large scale data-sharing, to deliver concrete benefits to all Five Eye members. The M5 plays a critical role in the current period of significant evolution for global migration, as geopolitical factors and environmental transformations continue to challenge and impact mobility norms.
The M5 Chairmanship Coordinator will play an integral role in the formation of the USG's M5 Chairmanship Plan, to include coordinating initial consultations across DHS and the interagency, as well as with foreign counterparts, to identify key migration priorities to propose progressing through this forum. The incumbent may also participate in staff and principal-level M5 virtual meetings with Five Eye counterparts to discuss both current and future action items, while working with USG M5 stakeholders (within DHS, State, etc.) to help coordinate implementation of M5 action items. This rotation is an opportunity to deepen your understanding of DHS's engagement with counterparts on migration-related policies and practices. You'll also learn more about how each DHS Component (U.S. Customs and Border Protection, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, etc.) contributes to the DHS mission. Finally, you'll have the chance to interact and negotiate with some of the United States' closest allies.
