Job Description:
At GDIT, people are our differentiators. We deliver clarity and capability in the moments that matter most.
We are seeking full-time Program Support Specialists to support the CDC's Office of Public Health Data, Surveillance, and Technology (OPHDST) at the Roybal campus in Atlanta, GA.
OPHDST leads CDC's agency-wide Data Modernization Initiative - the effort to turn fragmented public health data into a connected, near-real-time enterprise. Delivering that mission takes a strong layer of people who keep the work moving: tracking the action items, coordinating across teams, and making sure nothing falls through the cracks. This is a high-visibility CDC priority, and this is the role that keeps it on track day to day.
How a Program Support Specialist Will Make an Impact
You will work directly with CDC customers and GDIT program leadership to keep program activities organized, tracked, and moving. This is hands-on coordination work in a fast-moving federal program - the kind of role where you navigate a complex organization, corral the right people, and own the follow-through that turns direction into done.
Work directly with CDC stakeholders and GDIT program leadership, taking direction and turning it into tracked, completed action.
Build and maintain action-item trackers, status reports, and coordination tools that keep activities visible and on schedule.
Navigate a complex, multi-stakeholder organization - finding the right people, chasing the open items, and closing the loop.
Own your own action items end to end while supporting the broader team's deliverables and deadlines.
Coordinate meetings, prepare materials, capture and distribute notes, and manage document version control and filing.
Support tracking, reporting, and information-gathering across program tasks, applying sound judgment to keep things accurate and complete.
What You'll Need to Succeed
Required
Bachelor's Degree in related field
5 + years of experience providing program, project, or operational support in a professional environment - ideally a federal health, government, or comparable mission-driven setting.
Proven ability to work directly with customers and leadership: taking direction, coordinating across teams, and following through independently.
Strong organization, tracking, and reporting skills - comfortable owning action items and keeping work visible and on schedule.
Professional communication and a service orientation in a customer-facing role.
Proficiency with Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, Outlook, Teams, SharePoint) and common tracking/collaboration tools.
Ability to obtain and maintain a CDC Public Trust clearance and CDC badge.
Local to the Atlanta metro and within commuting distance of the Roybal campus - on-site presence is required (this is not a fully remote role).
Strongly Preferred
Current or recent CDC/HHS experience, badge, or familiarity with OPHDST/DDPHSS or an adjacent office.
A variety of experience supporting federal programs - coordination, tracking, reporting, and stakeholder support across different tasks and teams.
Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience. We value demonstrated reliability and results over credentials.
Attributes for Success
Dependable and proactive - the kind of person who notices what's slipping and gets ahead of it.
Adaptable across a range of tasks; comfortable plugging in wherever the program needs support.
Strong team orientation, with clear handoffs and follow-through.
Motivated to contribute to a national public health mission.
