About the role

Leidos’ Defense Sensors Research and Analysis Portfolio is seeking a Property Accountability Specialist to join our team. The Property Accountability Specialist is responsible for end-to-end accuracy of property transactions and records spanning ELMS and connected accountability systems. This role safeguards audit readiness and mission performance by ensuring that every receipt, transfer, lifecycle update, valuation change, and disposal action is executed with zero defects, documented correctly on first submission, and reflected consistently across ELMS, PIEE, PCARSS, LOSS, AESIP, and associated tracking tools. The Specialist proactively coordinates with EPAO, APO, A2R, Contracts, Auditing, and THAAD component stakeholders to maintain seamless property operations and on-time approvals.

Leidos provides a diverse portfolio of systems, solutions, and services covering land, sea, air, space, and cyberspace for customers worldwide. Solutions for Defense include enterprise and mission IT, large-scale intelligence systems, command and control, geospatial and data analytics, cybersecurity, logistics, training, and intelligence analysis and operations support. Our team is solving the world’s toughest security challenges for customers with “can’t fail” missions.

Responsibilities

• Execute all ELMS accountability actions: receiving, transfers, record updates, lifecycle changes, and disposals. Ensure entries reflect correct status, metadata, custodian, location, and valuation. Maintain 100% accuracy to prevent suspensions, audit issues, or mission impact.

• Maintain accurate, consistent records in ELMS, PIEE, PCARSS, LOSS, AESIP, and tracking tools. Prevent duplicate records, serial number errors, cataloging mistakes, or mismatched IDs. Validate all asset lines proactively.
• Reconcile shipments and verify asset identity against due-ins. Receive assets accurately, with proper justification and correct documentation.
• Coordinate with EPAO, APO, A2R, Contracts, Auditing, and THAAD stakeholders for routing and approvals. Support working groups, meetings, tag-ups, and staff calls. Ensure error-free collaboration without repeated corrections.
• Complete accurate reviews and updates of spreadsheets, matrices, AESIP products, and tracking documents. Return corrections promptly and ensure all data points are verified before submission.

Requirements

• High school diploma plus 18 years of relevant logistics, supply chain, property accountability, or DoD asset management experience.
