Job Description

Who We Are:

Headquartered in Washington, DC, Versar Global Solutions provides full mission lifecycle solutions for challenges faced by our government and commercial Customers in the natural, built, and digital environments. With team members around the world and a rich legacy spanning more than 50 years, Versar Global Solutions delivers a broad array of planning, analysis and risk management solutions, project and program management, operations and maintenance services, and information technology applications for environmental management and remediation projects, mission critical facilities and installations, and in support of readiness and contingency operations.

Who You Are:

This position as an Operations Strategy and Modernization Analyst supports Air Force Civil Engineering Directorate (A4C). This person will support the execution of the Civil Engineer Operations initiatives, to include the AF/A4C Strategic Implementation Plan (SIP), by coordinating enterprise initiatives, integrating cross-functional efforts, and monitoring progress toward strategic objectives. Coordinates actions across Headquarters Air Force, AFCEC, AFIMSC, MAJCOMs, and installation stakeholders to advance enterprise priorities related to Civil Engineer Operations governance, infrastructure modernization, enterprise asset management, engineering standards, and installation readiness. Supports development of implementation plans, performance measures, executive briefings, and strategic recommendations that improve operational effectiveness across the Department of the Air Force. The ideal candidate must be able to link tactical shop activities (preventive maintenance, material control, craft execution) to USAF strategic initiatives and the A4C Strategic Plan. This role bridges the gap between tactical base-level execution and Headquarters-level policy development, ensuring the core program areas of the Operations Flight are standardizing business processes, meeting statutory asset management requirements, and maintaining combat-readiness.  

What You’ll Do:

• Coordinate and collaborate with Government personnel in the planning, implementation, execution, and continuous improvement of Civil Engineer Operations strategic initiatives under AF/A4C program management oversight.
• Support implementation of Operations Strategic Implementation Plan objectives by coordinating enterprise modernization initiatives, tracking strategic milestones, assessing risks to execution, integrating stakeholder actions, and developing recommendations that improve strategic outcomes and accelerate initiative delivery.
• Develop and maintain Plans of Action and Milestones (POA&Ms), implementation plans, performance measures, executive dashboards, and strategic reports supporting Civil Engineer Operations priorities. Coordinate milestone updates with action owners and prepare recurring executive status updates for senior leadership.
• Perform program analysis by identifying trends, evaluating organizational performance, assessing enterprise initiatives, and developing decision-support products for Headquarters Air Force leadership. Coordinate with AFCEC, AFIMSC, MAJCOMs, installations, and other Department of War organizations to integrate strategic initiatives and resolve cross-functional issues affecting enterprise execution.
• Support the execution of strategic initiatives involving Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) modernization, infrastructure hardening and resilience, utility modernization and recovery planning, enterprise fuel-storage advocacy, asset management modernization, condition-based maintenance implementation, infrastructure condition assessments, equipment modernization, Airman-Centric facilities initiatives, automated diagnostic technologies, and enterprise business process transformation.
• Research emerging technologies, industry best practices, and innovative business processes that improve Civil Engineer Operations and support continuous improvement across the Department of the Air Force.

What You’ll Bring:

Required Skills:

• Bachelor’s Degree from an accredited university and ten (10) or more years of experience supporting Air Force or Department of Defense programs performing strategic planning, implementation plans, or enterprise initiatives. 
• Experience developing and tracking Plans of Action and Milestones (POA&Ms), implementation plans, or strategic roadmaps

• Knowledge of AF CE installation-level organizational construct, including roles, responsibilities, and relationships of the sub-organizations, as well as relationships with external installation-level stakeholders
• Familiarity with Civil Engineer governance, Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC), enterprise asset management, or infrastructure modernization initiatives
• Ability to produce concise, decision‑ready written products (e.g., talking points, decision memos, briefing slides) for GO/SES audiences
• Experience developing executive dashboards, performance metrics, implementation plans, or decision-support products
