Hi everyone, I’m working on my express entry profile and running into an issue in determining the appropriate NOC for my foreign work experience.

I was an Intelligence Analyst in the U.S. military, but am not seeing a NOC that would most closely match this role.

Any ideas or suggestions? Thank you!

agree, there's no clear-cut NOC, at least not without your providing a list of the 5-8 most significant job responsibilities/duties...

Assuming that there's some variability in what "military analysts" do (what kind of data do you look at, what analytical tools/techniques did you use?) , there could be several different NOCs.

For example,
http://www5.hrsdc.gc.ca/NOC/English/NOC/2011/ProfileQuickSearch.aspx?val=2&val1=2255&val65=analys

If you haven't already done so, you can do a key word search using "analyst" and see the different kinds of analysts...

Thank you for your assistance! I was afraid to choose something incorrect and then have my application rejected. Based on the duties of my foreign work experience, I've determine that the best NOC is 1221.

So, the lead statement of 1221 fits? Guess I have the wrong idea of what an intelligence analyst does... : )

Administrative officers oversee and implement administrative procedures, establish work priorities, conduct analyses of administrative operations and co-ordinate acquisition of administrative services such as office space, supplies and security services.
