SALARY AND BENEFITS:
This is a term, one-year position with the possibility of extension at the Center's discretion. The starting salary is set at $83,463 (includes 2024 D.C. locality). This position falls in the Center's pay band 4, which has a salary range up to $151,391. For a successful candidate not currently a member of the Center staff, a higher starting salary, not to exceed $87,636 (includes 2024 D.C. locality) may be considered if the candidate furnishes proof that his/her current salary falls above the pay band 4 minimum salary of $83,463 (includes 2024 D.C. locality), in which case the Center would match that salary up to the starting salary limit of $87,636. This is the maximum starting salary, and it is non-negotiable. In addition, a successful candidate who does not live within the D.C. locality region or work at the official duty station in Washington, D.C. 16 or more hours per pay period will not receive D.C. region locality pay and will receive the locality pay of their place of primary residence (telework site). If the successful internal candidate's salary falls above the range minimum, that salary will be matched up to his/her current salary.
Federal government benefits are applicable. An array of supplemental benefits is also offered, including a transportation subsidy and a flexible benefit program allowing for pre-tax deductions for health insurance, health care, dependent care, and commuter expenses. The Federal Judicial Center is located in the Thurgood Marshall Building, conveniently situated to public transportation directly beside Union Station.
