This position works directly within an ISIC-level staff environment , supporting logistics, material readiness, and lifecycle sustainment across subordinate operational units and emerging maritime capabilities. We are looking for someone who understands logistics from the staff perspective , not simply execution at the individual unit level. The ideal candidate has previously served on or directly supported an ISIC, Group, TYCOM, or comparable Navy staff and understands how to work across subordinate commands, higher headquarters, program offices, supply and maintenance organizations, and other stakeholders. This is not a warehouse or traditional supply position. The N41 specialist will help the staff identify readiness and logistics gaps, coordinate requirements across supported units, develop and improve support processes, and help establish the long-term logistics framework needed to sustain developing Fleet capabilities. This is an immediate staffing requirement supporting an active customer program. Interviews will be scheduled as qualified applications are received.

What Matters Most We need someone who understands the difference between executing logistics for one command and managing logistics/readiness issues across a force . The right person should be comfortable receiving issues from subordinate units, determining whether they are isolated or systemic, identifying the appropriate organization or process to resolve them, and driving actions across multiple stakeholders. You should be comfortable: Operating independently within a Navy staff Working directly with senior military and civilian personnel Understanding the relationship between an ISIC and its subordinate units Looking across multiple commands to identify common readiness and logistics problems Translating operational requirements into logistics and sustainment requirements Working across organizational boundaries to resolve problems Managing multiple actions and competing priorities Taking incomplete or developing requirements and building a practical way forward Recognizing when an issue belongs at the unit, ISIC, program office, or higher level Developing repeatable processes rather than relying on one-time fixes Communicating effectively with operators, logisticians, maintainers, engineers, program personnel, and leadership Required Qualifications U.S. Citizen Active DoD Secret security clearance Significant U.S. Navy logistics, supply, material-readiness, or lifecycle-support experience Demonstrated experience supporting Navy operational organizations Strong understanding of Navy logistics, supply, and readiness processes Experience coordinating logistics or material requirements across multiple organizations or stakeholders Experience working with TOA, allowance, equipment, supply, or comparable readiness requirements Ability to independently manage assigned actions and priorities Strong written and verbal communication skills Ability to operate effectively within a military staff environment Ability to obtain and maintain required installation/base access Ability to support occasional CONUS travel as required Preferred Qualifications Prior ISIC, Group, TYCOM, or comparable Navy staff experience N4/N41 staff experience Expeditionary or maritime staff experience Navy Supply Corps or senior enlisted logistics background TOA development and management experience Experience with NTCSS, SKED, COSAL, and/or APLs Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) experience Lifecycle-management or sustainment experience Experience supporting Fleet introduction or new capability fielding Experience supporting unmanned maritime or other emerging Navy systems Experience coordinating directly with Navy program offices, warfare centers, supply activities, maintenance organizations, or OEMs Experience developing logistics SOPs, staff processes, trackers, or readiness reporting Work Environment This position is primarily embedded with and supporting a U.S. Navy staff in the San Diego area. The N41 specialist will regularly interact with staff leadership, subordinate operational units, program offices, maintenance and supply organizations, contractors, and other supporting activities. This is a staff position, but it is closely connected to operational Fleet requirements. Candidates should be comfortable getting out from behind the desk when needed to understand problems firsthand and working directly with the Sailors, maintainers, and organizations executing the mission. The successful candidate should be able to take ownership of an issue, understand where it belongs, bring the right organizations together, and keep it moving toward resolution. Compensation $100,000 - $120,000 annually , depending on qualifications and experience. Why Join Anchor? Anchor Innovation supports U.S. Navy organizations across maritime operations, maintenance sustainment, training, readiness, and emerging autonomous capabilities. This position provides an opportunity to work directly with a Fleet staff as it develops and improves the logistics and sustainment structure supporting emerging maritime capabilities. Rather than stepping into a mature program where every process has already been established, the N41 specialist will have an opportunity to help shape how these capabilities are supported across the force and help build processes that subordinate units can actually use. #J-18808-Ljbffr Anchor Innovation, Inc.
