Our “Take Command of Your Career®” tagline is something that we take very seriously. It is our goal to give our CIVMAR workforce the ability to advance their career. With hard work and dedication, CIVMARs can advance through our ranks and can continue to challenge themselves professionally. Find Merit Promotion and Coastal Transfer opportunities below to help take your career further faster.
MERIT PROMOTION OPPORTUNITIES
One of the ways CIVMARs advance their careers is applying for Merit Promotions. Any CIVMAR interested in moving from one position to another can apply using the Merit Promotion System.
To do so, fill out a merit promotion application for any of the open positions below and and submit to the Command. All positions are scheduled to open annually. Once reviewed, CIVMARs who have deemed best qualified will be notified and these results can be viewed on the Evaluation Board Results page. Note: the schedule is subject to change based on the needs of the Command. Any specific questions you have regarding Merit Promotions Opportunities should be emailed to MSC_POAinbox@us.navy.mil.
