Why Join Our Team?

Are you interested in a challenging career working on our Nation's vital energy resource development issues in these critical times?

The Minerals Management Service's (MMS) Offshore Energy and Minerals Management Program is in the forefront of these issues and we need talented individuals to help us fulfill our mission.

As part of the U.S. Department of the Interior, we are devoted to protecting and preserving our Nation's resources while balancing our energy resource needs. We are seeking individuals who share our passion for these resources and the country's energy future and security.

How Can I Help?

Photo of a Wind FarmOur needs are many and varied—from engineers, marine biologists, geologists, environmental specialists, program analysts, statisticians and economists—to name just a few.

The work of OEMM includes the preparation and administration of regular offshore oil and gas lease sales, supporting research and documentation leading up to each lease sale.

One of the newest and most exciting programs administered by OEMM is the relatively new Alternative Energy and Alternate Use Program—alternatives such as wind power, wave and current power, and solar energy.

This is an extremely important and exhilarating time for OEMM—we need the best and the brightest to achieve our goals, meet our mission requirements and perhaps most importantly, ensure that we do all we can to securely recover America's energy resources offshore.
