Executive Rotations

OPM's list of available Executive Rotations facilitates interagency executive mobility, help agencies implement their Talent Management & Succession Management Programs, as well as help agencies meet the E.O. rotations requirement of increasing the number of executives rotating to improve talent development, mission delivery and collaboration.

Below provides the latest listing of available Executive Rotation assignments/opportunities. The list includes rotation announcements, across the Federal government, posted on OPM's executive information management system (e.g., ESCS). Please note, these opportunities are only open to current career SES members.

Rotation Definition: A rotation is a development process, involving movement to another position or an assignment that broadens the executive's knowledge, skill and experience in order to improve talent development, mission delivery and collaboration. A rotation must last a minimum of 120 consecutive calendar days and provide experience outside the executive's current role.

Rotation Examples:

  1. Executive reassignment
  2. Executive transfer
  3. Developmental assignment internal to the agency, for example to another component, subcomponent, functional area, or location (e.g., acting in another executive position, field executive rotating to HQ or vice versa, cross-agency working group)
  4. Developmental assignment external to the agency (e.g., Intergovernmental Personnel Act (IPA) program; temporary assignment/detail to another Federal agency or private sector where permitted by law)
