Department Of Energy

Protect Our Power: Advance Your Career as a Key Security Strategist

Leverage your experience and take the next major step in your career. This senior Physical Security Specialist role is a unique opportunity for a seasoned professional to transition into a high-impact, strategic position. Move beyond established procedures and become a primary architect of our security future, with the visibility and influence to protect our mission at the highest level.

This role will elevate your career by empowering you to:

  • Step into a high-visibility advisory role, providing direct counsel to the Physical Security Manager and shaping the direction and effectiveness of BPA's entire security program.
  • Transition from applying existing methods to true innovation, developing new theories and pioneering creative solutions to protect our critical infrastructure from complex and evolving threats.
  • Take full ownership of major security initiatives, driving them from concept to completion by developing the business cases, financial justifications, and capital investment plans for multi-million dollar projects.
  • Expand your influence beyond BPA by representing the agency on interagency committees, helping to analyze and shape the national policies and legislation that govern our industry.
  • Become a designated technical authority on critical infrastructure protection, serving as BPA's expert voice in regional and national collaborations with partners like the DOE, DHS, and NERC.
  • Lead the charge on our most critical compliance programs, overseeing all aspects of NERC CIP assessments and acting as the primary point of contact during high-stakes audits and inspections.
  • Serve as the go-to expert for our most complex security challenges, leading specialized studies to resolve severe or unusual issues and negotiating solutions with senior management.
  • Elevate your focus from daily operations to long-term vision by directing the studies that create our 5-10 year security plans and forecasts, positioning BPA for future success.
