Description | |
The Celestar Corporation has been issued an IMMEDIATE Task Order to provide support to the Department of State Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL). As a result, we’re looking for (03) Senior Police Advisors who will be seated at the ISF Academy in Aramoun, Beirut, Lebanon. If interested and qualified, we welcome you to post for this challenging opportunity.
SECURITY CLEARANCE: A Secret clearance is required for this position. However, the Advisors can begin work with an interim Secret clearance. PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE: One (1) Year from the Date of Assignment with no additional option periods to exercise. BACKGROUND The U.S. Department of State is the lead institution for the conduct of American diplomacy and the Secretary of State is the President’s principal foreign policy advisor. The Department of State’s mission is to advance U.S. national security interests, fight terrorism, protect U.S. interests abroad, and implement foreign policy initiatives that build a freer, prosperous and secure world. INL keeps Americans safe at home by countering international crime, illegal drugs, and instability abroad. INL helps countries deliver justice and fairness by strengthening their police, courts, and corrections systems. These efforts reduce the amount of crime and illegal drugs reaching U.S. shores. INL’s Office of Africa and the Middle East (INL/AME) provides policy guidance and develops, executes, and monitors programs to address the full range of criminal justice issues as they relate to rule of law and police reform activities in Lebanon.
INL assistance promotes the U.S. strategic goal in Lebanon of supporting Lebanon’s viability as an independent and sovereign democracy capable of responding to the needs of its citizens, while maintaining internal stability and meeting its international obligations regarding UN Security Council Resolutions (UNSCR). Specifically, the goal of INL’s programming is to increase state stability and delegitimize non-state institutions by strengthening Lebanon’s Ministries of Interior and Justice, Higher Judicial Council, and Internal Security Forces (ISF) to enhance service delivery to the public, and improve the prevention, intervention, and adjudication of criminal and terrorist incidents. INL works toward this goal partially through law enforcement modernization efforts, which are focused on the professionalization of the ISF. These efforts are designed to assist security and related institutions to develop into a professional and democratic police force dedicated to protecting the people of Lebanon. Increased ISF effectiveness will lead to increased public support and trust in the ISF and state institutions. This contract will directly support INL’s Expanding Police Professionalism (EP2) program. The goal of the EP2 program is to improve the professionalism and responsiveness of the ISF’s Territorial Gendarmerie (TG) units in order to provide effective policing outside of the greater Beirut area. INL plans to accomplish this through enhancing their basic policing skills and control tactics, techniques and procedures; enabling coordination with local authorities; and incorporating elements of community policing. As part of EP2, to increase the TG’s knowledge, skills, and abilities, INL will implement curriculum development, training, equipping and mentoring projects. The training and equipment will benefit all 7,500 active TG and ISF Academy instructors, while the mentoring will benefit the instructors and TG station and unit leadership. POSITION DESCRIPTION
In tandem with the INL Senior Police Coordinator (SPC), INL’s Senior Police Advisors (SPAs) will implement the curriculum development, training, and mentoring projects. Note they will not be responsible for procuring equipment, but they will assist with equipment needs identification and possibly on equipment use and related issues. In tandem with the SPC, the SPAs will work with the TG and other stakeholders to design and deliver appropriate curriculum, train TG rank and file, train TG Unit Leadership, mentor ISF trainers to assume full responsibility of the training program, and mentor TG Station Commanders / Unit Leadership connect training and operations, ensuring that TG members are implementing training techniques learned in INL and ISF trainings. The SPC and SPAs will work with the ISF training academy to develop and deliver curriculum for the TG, and to train the ISF trainers. Training will initially be co-taught by INL and the ISF academy trainers, but over time, INL will step into a mentoring and oversight role. TG training will be exclusively taught by ISF trainers once the SPAs determine that the ISF trainers are able to execute trainings on their own (at this point, INL will only provide mentoring for the ISF trainers on their instruction). Following training, the SPAs will provide ongoing mentoring activities for ISF Station Commanders / Unit Leadership. The SPAs will develop a plan and execute it to measure the program’s impact. Over the course of the program’s lifecycle, INL’s SPAs will develop and report on curriculum, training, and mentoring milestones, indicators, and outcomes to ensure that the TG training is having an impact. The SPAs will develop a robust framework to ensure that knowledge, skills, and abilities are transferred to TG participants following training and ensure that the SPAs are proficient and able to execute KSAs over time. Over the course of the program’s lifecycle, all activities will be gradually transitioned to ISF ownership to ensure sustainability at program completion. This contract will provide three Senior Police Advisors to Lebanon whose combined efforts will support INL’s EP2 and the larger Law Enforcement Modernization Program (LEM). With this contract and through the efforts of the SPAs, INL expects to improve the professionalism and responsiveness of the TG to provide effective policing outside of the greater Beirut area, doing so should improve public perceptions of the TG. The Advisors will support, assist, and advise the ISF as well as the INL office as they carry out the implementation of the EP2 Program. LEVEL OF EFFORT
