The Civilian Human Resources Agency Southwest Region, headquartered at Fort Riley, has received an appropriation for additional positions. CHRA Southwest provides civilian human resources services to the Department of Defense.

The new positions, which CHRA hopes to have mostly filled by the end of April, have been designated to provide civilian human resources products.

Carol Burton, CHRA Southwest Region Director, said the new positions vary from technical work to transactiuonal work, and clerical positions. Some job openings have been filled through internal personnel, but about 40 are being recruited from the general public.

There are a variety of different positions. Burton said some require a high school graduation or general experience, and some require previous work in the field. “The vast majority of the ones that we are recruiting for right now require a bachelor’s degree or some type of related experience.”

The new CHRA job vacancies will be posted on www.usajobs.gov.
