Executive Assistant

The purpose of this 180-day training plan is to prepare interns to effectively support the Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO) by developing the liaison, communication, executive support, workflow management, editorial review, records management, and strategic coordination skills required to serve as a central point of contact for the office. This training plan provides structured on-the-job experience in executive office operations, high-volume task management, professional correspondence review, executive routing, calendar and meeting support, travel coordination, sensitive records handling, and financial-related administrative coordination.

Executive-level administrative operations, professional correspondence, and strategic liaison management support the Department of Homeland Security mission within a financial administration environment. Through supervised hands-on experience, the intern will learn to manage high-volume workflows, conduct editorial reviews, coordinate with senior leadership and stakeholders, safeguard sensitive information, and support varying executive and financial-related administrative assignments within the Office of the CFO.
