SNG is Seneca Holdings' federal government contracting business that meets mission-critical needs of federal civilian, defense, and intelligence community customers. Our portfolio comprises multiple subsidiaries that participate in the Small Business Administration 8(a) program.

The Site Specialist is responsible for identifying, evaluating, and securing event venues in support of the U.S. Army Chief of Chaplains' Building Strong & Ready Teams (BSRT) / Strong Bonds Program. This role ensures that sites meet Army standards for safety, occupancy, cost, childcare, food, lodging, and audiovisual requirements. The Site Specialist conducts site research, assessments, and negotiations with facilities to provide the best value to the Government, while ensuring compliance with Logistical Support Package (LSP) requirements.

Key Duties & Responsibilities

Site Identification & Research

  • Conduct research to identify potential venues (CONUS / OCONUS) that can accommodate chaplain-led training events.
  • Evaluate sites for compliance with Army requirements (e.g., meeting space codes, childcare accommodations, security, accessibility, per diem lodging / meal rates).
  • Maintain a vetted database of approved and potential sites for recurring use.

Venue Evaluation & Negotiation

  • Conduct site visits and inspections to verify suitability for lodging, meals, childcare, meeting rooms, and audiovisual support.
  • Negotiate contracts with venues, ensuring costs do not exceed authorized per diem and regulatory limits.
  • Ensure that sites meet Acceptable Quality Levels (AQLs), including 100% compliance with occupancy and safety standards.
  • Logistical Coordination

  • Coordinate with Event Managers to match sites with event requirements on the Authorized Event List (AEL).
  • Ensure lodging meets minimum AAA 3-diamond / Forbes 3-star standards with interior corridor access.
  • Verify that meal costs remain within allowable per diem rates and comply with food safety standards.
  • Confirm audiovisual support availability and reliability.
  • Stakeholder Engagement

  • Advise Unit Ministry Teams (UMTs) and Event Leaders on venue options and recommendations.
  • Provide reports and recommendations to the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) for approval.
  • Support Event Managers in developing Profile Sheets (venue and support details per event).
  • Compliance & Reporting

  • Document site selection process, inspection findings, and contract negotiations.
  • Provide input for Monthly Execution Reports and Quarterly Close-Out Reports regarding venue contracts and associated costs.
  • Ensure venue selection aligns with Army Conference Policy (AR 1-50) and other applicable regulations.
  • Required Qualifications

    Education & Experience

  • Active Secret clearance.
  • Associate's or Bachelor's degree in Hospitality, Event Management, Business, or related field.
  • Minimum 3 years of experience in site selection, venue contracting, or hospitality logistics.
  • Experience supporting government or large-scale corporate events preferred.
  • Skills & Competencies

  • Knowledge of Army per diem, lodging, and food cost regulations (FAR 31.205-46).
  • Strong vendor negotiation and contract review skills.
  • Ability to evaluate facilities against safety, childcare, and logistical standards.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, Outlook).
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills for working with venues, UMTs, and government stakeholders.
  • Professional Standards

  • Ensure all site recommendations comply with Army safety, security, and ethical standards.
  • Maintain professional conduct when representing the Contractor in negotiations or site visits.
  • Travel extensively (domestic and OCONUS) to identify, inspect, and support event venues.
  • Complete mandatory AT / OPSEC and IT training within 30 days of hire and annually thereafter.
