We pride ourselves in developing creative, customized, and flexible approaches that meet our clients’ evolving and dynamic needs.

CENTRA is looking an early or mid-career analyst to serve as a Foreign Transaction Risk Analyst on the Risk Mitigation and Compliance Monitoring (RMCM) team within DHS’s Office of Trade and Economic Security (TES).

Candidates must be well-organized, detail-oriented, and team-focused, with demonstrably strong interpersonal, research, and critical thinking skills.

  • Monitoring private parties' compliance with legally binding risk mitigation agreements, identification of potential violations of risk mitigation agreements, and development of remedies, and determine whether enforcement of civil monetary penalties for violations of applicable regulations and mitigation agreements, conditions, or orders.
  • Supporting enforcement/penalty actions through an interagency penalty process.
  • Drafting formal recommendations, memoranda, and other briefing documents for senior officials, which outline issues pertaining to the mitigation of risks arising from foreign investment, foreign and U.S. businesses’ compliance with mitigation agreements, and providing in-depth analysis and the options available to mitigate risk to national security or whether enforcement of civil monetary penalties is needed.
  • Coordinating stakeholder management, including maintaining communications with DHS components and interagency peers, representing DHS in meetings, and promptly answering requests from stakeholders.
  • Maintaining records related to the above-mentioned responsibilities.

Required:

  • Bachelors or higher degree;
  • 8 years minimum professional experience with a BA or BS / 5 years minimum professional experience with a higher degree;
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Suite of products; and
