POSITION SUMMARY
DIA is currently recruiting for positions in the Inspector General Career
Field at multiple locations.
INSPECTOR GENERAL CAREER FIELD
Officers in this field are responsible for promoting effective, efficient,
and economically sound intelligence activities, and detecting and deterring
fraud, waste, abuse, and mismanagement for all DIA elements, programs,
functions, and operations. This is accomplished through conducting
financial and performance audits to include annual audit of financial
statements, evaluating effectiveness and efficiency of programs and operations,
and conducting administrative and criminal investigations including
Intelligence Oversight and management of the OIG Hotline.
Criminal Investigations Career Specialty:
Officers in this field are responsible for supervising, leading, or
performing work involving planning, conducting, and/or managing
investigations related to alleged or suspected criminal violations of
Federal laws. The results of those investigations aid responsible
officials in making or invoking civil or administrative actions, judgments
(decisions), sanctions, or penalties. Work involves recognizing,
developing, and presenting evidence to reconstruct events, sequences, time
elements, relationships, responsibilities, legal liabilities, and conflicts
of interest; conducting investigations in a manner meeting legal and
procedural requirements; and providing advice and assistance both in and
out of court to the U.S. Attorney’s Office during investigations and
prosecutions. This work primarily requires knowledge of criminal
investigative techniques, rules of criminal procedures, laws, and precedent
court decisions concerning the admissibility of evidence, constitutional
rights, search and seizure, and related issues in the conduct of
investigations. Of note, in contrast to the work of Federal Police
officers, Criminal Investigators are not typically concerned with
independent individuals or small, local groups of individuals committing
crimes on Federal property, unless they are germane to larger
investigations. Rather, Criminal Investigators focus on suspected
major offenses or violations of Federal laws, where the investigative
assignment requires an extended period of time (e.g., days, weeks, or
months) for completion.
Criminal Investigators are not covered by federal law enforcement retirement
provisions. Therefore, it does not include those financial benefits
usually associated with Occupational Series 1811 positions (i.e. Law
Enforcement Availability Pay (LEAP) and Law Enforcement Retirement
benefits).
Positions include -
