Operations Specialist
  • US Navy Reserve
  • Lamar, AR FULL_TIME
  • ABOUT Do you have what it takes to lead in the heart of Naval combat? As an Operations Specialist, you will serve as a supervisor and leader in the top-secret Combat Information Center. From the ocean surface, to outer space, you have a complete picture of all assets in the area. Day and night, your team tracks potential enemy targets and records their movement using complex radar equipment. As an OS, your intel gives ships and aircraft a strategic advantage, and helps weapons operators neutralize any threat to American forces. The mission of the Navy Reserve is to provide strategic depth and deliver operational capabilities to the Navy and Marine Corps team and Joint forces, in times of peace or war. Navy Reserve Sailors seamlessly support and actively aid that mission, all while continuing to lead their own independent lives in the civilian world. RESPONSIBILITIES Operations Specialists function as plotters, radio-telephone and Command and Control sound-powered telephone talkers and maintain Combat Information Center (CIC) displays of strategic and tactical information. On any given day, Operations Specialists:
    • Serve as watch supervisors and section leaders
    • Track, classify and evaluate potential contacts using the latest radar equipment
    • Apply a thorough knowledge of doctrine and procedures applicable to CIC operations contained in U.S. Navy Instructions and Allied or U.S. Navy
    • Provide to the command technical information and assistance related to Anti-Surface Warfare, Anti-Air Warfare, Anti-Submarine Warfare, Amphibious Warfare, Mine Warfare, Naval Gunfire Support, search and rescue operations and other matters pertaining to the Operations Specialist's area
    WORK ENVIRONMENT As an Operations Specialist, your work environment will be fairly comfortable, often indoors in a clean computer room environment. This role involves mostly mental work. Operations Specialists in the Reserves can expect to be assigned to maritime security squadrons, a variety of surface combatants, special warfare commands, and various staff support units.

Here, they develop a working knowledge of tactical publications, charts and course plotting, radar operation, detection, tracking and interpretation, air and surface status board keeping, radio-telephone coding, anti-warfare, plotting, vector analysis and Naval tactical data systems. Once you've finished schooling, you'll spend the rest of your career alternating between service at shore commands and aboard surface ships in the U.S. and overseas. Promotion opportunities are regularly available but competitive and based on performance. It's also important to note that specialized training received and work experience gained in the course of service can lead to valuable credentialing and occupational opportunities in related fields in the civilian sector. PAY AND BENEFITS When you serve your country, you become a part of something truly important – and you deserve to be rewarded accordingly. Navy Reservists enjoy a comprehensive range of benefits, from state-of-the-art training to extensive educational assistance, VA benefits and more.
