  • Champion the adoption of best practices and drive a culture of continuous improvement across the enterprise.
  • Prepare and deliver executive-level reports, briefings, and talking points for audiences including senior agency leadership and congressional stakeholders.

Requirements

  • A minimum of 10 years of demonstrated experience in strategic planning, program management, or policy development within the Intelligence Community or Department of Defense. In lieu of a Master’s degree, 15+ years. In lieu of a Bachelor's degree, 20+ years.
  • Proven experience leading large-scale organizational change initiatives and process re-engineering efforts from conception to implementation.
  • Demonstrated experience providing direct strategic counsel to, and building productive relationships with, senior executive-level leaders.
  • Expert-level knowledge of project management principles and demonstrated experience managing a portfolio of complex, cross-functional projects.
  • Extensive experience in analyzing, drafting, and implementing high-level policy and strategic guidance.
  • Experience leading strategic-level organizational performance assessments.
  • Experience drafting and developing strategic guidance.

Desired Skills:

  • Demonstrated experience leading strategic-level organizational performance assessments and translating findings into actionable improvements.
  • Proven ability to lead and facilitate negotiations with foreign partners and manage multinational engagement strategies.
  • Expertise in analyzing and interpreting space policy documents and remote sensing regulations to provide recommendations to senior leadership.
