Cybersecurity Policy Intern Key Responsibilities:

· Conduct research into technical, policy, and governmental topics and present findings to ZRA consultants and clients.

· Develop briefings and reports to convey research findings and strategic recommendations.

· Track governmental affairs and industry trends, including taking notes at relevant Congressional hearings and industry conferences, and monitoring Federal Register publications.

· Support project management activities.

· Establish and maintain client relationships.

· Provide editing, proofreading, and deliverable finalization support.

Required Qualifications:

· Bachelor’s degree in relevant field(s), including cybersecurity, national security, international affairs, political science, risk management, cybersecurity, or business.

· Strong briefing skills and experience, including PowerPoint presentations and public speaking.

· Demonstrated proficiency in open-source research.

· Skills and demonstrated interest in policy analysis and cybersecurity.

· Excellent written and oral communication skills.

· Ability to work 30 hours per week, including 50% in-office at ZRA Headquarters in Arlington, VA.

· Eligibility for Top Secret security clearance.

Preferred Qualifications:

· Active security clearance (any level)

· Previous professional experience in national security, cybersecurity, or consulting.

· Strong technical knowledge, including professional certifications such as COMPTIA, CISSP, PMP, etc.

Required availability:

To Apply:

Additional Information:

· Preferred, but not required: Applicants for employment need to be able to obtain and maintain an upper-level security clearance (Top Secret), which requires U.S. citizenship. If you hold more than one citizenship (i.e., of the U.S. and another country), your ability to obtain a security clearance may be impacted. U.S. Citizenship is required for this position.

· Applicants offered employment are subject to a federal background investigation to meet the requirements for access to classified information or matter. Substance abuse or illegal drug use, falsification of information, criminal activity, serious misconduct or other indicators of untrustworthiness can cause a clearance to be denied or terminated, resulting in the inability to perform the duties assigned and subsequent termination of employment.

· Applicants for employment also need to be able to obtain and maintain DHS Suitability.
