As the largest employer of US Merchant Mariners, Military Sealift Command (MSC) offers competitive and first class opportunities to our civil service mariner (CIVMAR) employees. Total Force Management (TFM) is working hard to address and lay to rest the ghosts of our past so that we are ready for the big opportunities on the horizon in our continued service to the U.S. Navy and the entire Department of Defense.While we do not claim to be perfect, we continue to complete action items to support the CIVMAR, be innovative in addressing challenges, to be communicative with you and all parts of our workforce and to push hard to move our ships and processes forward.
We are asking for your help to help address these ghosts and build awareness of careers in the maritime industry, specifically at MSC. We want to provide you tools and resources you can use to help build awareness for MSC and seagoing careers.
