The U.S. Treasury Office of Technical Assistance is recruiting individual government debt management advisors for personal services contracts in emerging markets worldwide. Resident assignments are generally for one year and are likely to be renewed, and short-term intermittent work is also possible. This is a hiring-style notice for individuals, not a typical company contract.
Watch out for
- Individuals only, not companies. The notice asks individuals to apply and says companies should not submit resumes for them, so a small business cannot bid as a normal vendor.

- SECRET clearance required. A SECRET clearance can take a long time to obtain and cannot be obtained by a company on its own.
Background checks and Security Clearance: SECRET.
- Deployment to high-threat countries. Advisors may be sent to posts with elevated or critical threat levels, with heavy travel.
The advisor may be deployed to countries with elevated threat levels
- Strict email subject line. Emails without the exact subject line are treated as non-responsive and not forwarded for review.
