Job Description Military planners provide order to federal land development based on forecasted requirements just as an urban or community planner would do for a municipality. Both learn to think strategically about the best use of local resources to create feasible and economical short and long-term plans for their geographic locales and stakeholders. Where a military community planner differs is in the resources and methods used to forecast mission requirements, the dynamic technology and geopolitical drivers of those requirements, and the influence of mission dependency on facilities infrastructure investment decisions made at the congressional level. The ideal senior military facilities planner possesses eight or more years of directly relevant work experience and, at minimum, a bachelor's degree in urban, regional, or community planning; transportation, environmental, energy, or sustainable planning or design; Architecture; Landscape Architecture; economics; civil engineering, or similar. A master's degree in a relatable field and planner certification through The American Institute of Certified Planners (AICP) is preferred but not required. Anticipated tasks at this level include process development and improvement; informed new construction project siting, and project programming documentation (DD Form 1391) development. The senior military community planner is expected to directly advise and communicate with U.S. Marine Corps, Reserve stakeholders on technical aspects of project execution and maintain those relationships while reporting to Marine Corps Support Facility (MCSF) New Orleans on a renewable contract basis. Primary responsibilities include technical leadership on military installation master plan projects, determination of required tasks to enable the preferred concept for execution, self-execution and/or coordination and monitoring of required tasks by project team members, and completing Military Construction (MILCON) project documentation to include planning-level cost estimates and economic analysis. The senior military facilities planner must possess the technical skills to complete independently or coordinate with other appropriate technical disciplines to address the ten strategies of installation planning philosophy: Sustainability; natural, historic and cultural resources; healthy communities; defensible places; capacity; area development planning; network and form-based planning; facility standardization; and plan-based programming. An active security clearance is not required for this position; however, candidates must be able to pass a federal background check for entry to DoD facilities and access to electronic data at the Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) level. This role will be a 6 month contract to hire position sitting in CO Springs but the team is open to remote candidates as well. This role's hourly rate will start at 43.00 pending experience rate is open for negotiation.
