Birmingham, Alabama, United States Bureau Of The Fiscal Service Full time

PLEASE NOTE:

Based on the current hiring restrictions, selectees may be subject to additional approvals prior to an offer being extended.


This position will focus on federal fiscal, appropriations, budgetary, and accounting law, as these authorities pertain both to the Bureau and government-wide in the context of the Bureau's accounting and reporting mission activities.

Consistent with the expectations for a GS-15 employee within the Office of the Chief Counsel, the senior attorney is a thought leader within the office and the Bureau which means the incumbent has a detailed and sophisticated knowledge and understanding of Bureau authorities and operations as well as relevant industry standards and trends.

The incumbent regularly meets with Bureau executives and policy officials and proposes sophisticated, innovative, and credible solutions that address legal issues and proactively includes, whenever appropriate, advisory business-line guidance, input, or suggestions to further the mission and effectiveness of the Bureau.

As an Attorney Advisor (General) (Senior Counsel), you will:

  • As an attorney working at the expert level, the employee generates new theories; assignments are characterized by full technical responsibility for issues of considerable scope; and solutions may, at times, be controversial or require the resolution of competing viewpoints. The employee uses expert legal knowledge and extensive experience to work on very difficult legal assignments, often unassisted except for very general oversight from the supervisor.
  • At this level, in collaboration with the senior attorney in this portfolio, the attorney may be responsible for being a formal or informal team lead of a particular practice area(s) and will often be the main point of contact for those respective clients primarily in the areas of federal fiscal, appropriations, budgetary, and accounting law. The attorney often acts as a mentor to more junior attorneys and/or interns in the office.
  • Perform legal research and render opinions in the form of oral or written advice, briefings, presentations, and legal decision memoranda. Evaluate, interpret and apply statutes, regulations, court decisions, administrative decisions, Departmental precedents, Bureau policies and technical publications across the range of Bureau operations and programs, with a focus on the areas of federal fiscal, appropriations, budgetary, and accounting law.
  • Assist in defending or advocating the Bureau's position in Federal court litigation, when the Bureau is a party, by providing technical assistance and information to U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) litigation counsel, and by preparing litigation reports, and assisting in the drafting of pleadings, affidavits, and briefs, when appropriate.
