Serving with Forward Deployed Regional Maintenance Center (FDRMC) in a forward-deployed location supporting U.S. Fifth and Sixth Fleets, you will have an immediate impact on deployed, operational ships and their Sailors. Both homeported ships and deployed ships are expected to be on station and ready to meet fleet commanders' tasking. We must deliver mission-ready ships on time, every time. FDRMC conducts high-tempo ship maintenance operations with urgency because of those high stakes. FDRMC has more than 250 full-time, U.S. Department of Defense civilian positions across its three locations in Spain, Italy and Bahrain.
