Senior Records Management Specialist

GAP Solutions, Inc.
Washington, DC Full Time
POSTED ON 8/15/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 9/14/2026
NOTE: ACTIVE TOP SECRET CLEARANCE REQUIRED!

The Government Accountability Office (GAO), headed by the Comptroller General of the United States, was created by the Budget and Accounting Act of 1921. GAO is a legislative agency, independent of the executive departments. GAO assists the Congress in its oversight of executive branch departments and agencies by providing audits, evaluations, and investigations of federal programs and activities.

Records and Privacy (R&P) is responsible for agency records and information management services. R&P preserves organizational knowledge and mitigates risk and exposure to GAO by following best practices and developing processes, procedures, and enabling technologies that adhere to good recordkeeping guidance and standards.

R&P staff create, implement, manage, and enforce the policies and procedures concerning the creation, organization, maintenance, use, storage, retrieval, and disposition of the GAO's records (regardless of record media and formats), and administer the oversight program for federal agency requests for records disposition under Title 8 of the United States Code. R&P answers information requests and performs research on all GAO collections after custody of the records is transferred to R&P from the originating GAO offices.

The records collections within GAO are comprised of administrative, engagement, legal, and policy documents. R&P manages records of historical significance, such as the Legislative Histories and GAO’s publications. GAO records have varying degrees of sensitivity and classification, including, but not limited to classified National Security Information at all levels, Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), and business sensitive. Few of GAO’s holdings have permanent retention, but several collections must be maintained for decades. GAO has over ten million documents in its document and records management system and approximately 16,000 cubic feet of analog records in storage at the Federal Records Centers.
