For a successful candidate not currently a member of the Center staff, a higher starting salary, not to exceed $90,478 (includes 2026 D.C. locality) may be considered if the candidate furnishes proof that their current salary falls above the pay band 4 minimum salary of $86,169 (includes 2026 D.C. locality), in which case the Center would match that salary up to the starting salary limit of $90,478. This is the maximum starting salary, and it is non-negotiable. If the successful internal candidate's salary falls above the range minimum, that salary will be matched up to their current salary.
