MPRI Embedded Law Enforcement Professional (LEP)
Program
MPRI is seeking to hire current or
retired law enforcement personnel as embedded Law Enforcement Professionals (LEP)
to serve in Iraq or Afghanistan. You must have exceptional experience
investigating gangs, narcotic violations, organized crime, criminal networks,
terrorism, and/or violent crimes. Candidates must have
strong verbal and written communication skills.
Security Clearance
Requirement
LEPs must have the ability to
obtain a SECRET security clearance, or for related positions, TOP SECRET/SCI.
LEP Background
LEPs have been embedded as vital
members of the US Military. As a highly skilled team consisting of experienced
criminal enterprise investigators, LEPs served as investigators, planners,
advisors, and subject matter experts in support of designated US Army and Marine
units. LEPs have transferred their law enforcement experience from investigating
criminal suspects and networks in the US to investigating the insurgency in Iraq
and Afghanistan. The military has credited the LEP program with significant
contributions in targeting, capturing, and prosecuting criminals and insurgents
which has led to increased community stability and saving Soldiers’ lives.
The mission in Iraq and Afghanistan
is physically and mentally demanding. The weather is harsh and, depending where
you are located, there can be extreme heat in the summer and extreme cold in the
winter. The work schedule can be seven days a week and averages 12 to 16 hours
a day. You must consider a 12 to 15 month commitment and any health or physical
issues that would prevent you from successfully completing this mission. While
employed on this mission, there are several possibilities regarding your
assignment:
1.
After an eight day orientation in Virginia, and
a seven day suitability certification process at Ft. Benning, Georgia, LEPs may
deploy immediately to Iraq or Afghanistan.
2.
LEPs may be assigned to an Army unit stateside
for 60 to 90 days preparing to deploy to Iraq or Afghanistan.
3.
LEPs may be assigned to a stateside Marine
Corps unit for up to six months before deploying for approximately seven
months to Iraq or Afghanistan. Some Marine LEPs deploy immediately after
training in Virginia.
Note: The LEP program continues to grow; however, in the Defense
contracting industry, there are no guarantees regarding length of assignments,
theater placement, or future employment. In addition, there are no guarantees
regarding future employment with MPRI.
The leave policy allows for two
paid 15 day vacation trips back home during the year. Benefits are very
competitive.
