  • Participate in periodic strategy sessions and serve as a trusted advisor throughout the pre-solicitation, capture, and bid phases.
Qualifications
  • Minimum 5 years of experience working with or supporting the Department of State, with deep familiarity with the Bureau of Diplomatic Security (DS), including sub-offices such as DS/C/ST.
  • Demonstrated track record of engagement with senior-level DS personnel and contract leadership.
  • Existing relationships within the DS bureau and/or with current contract implementers in security technology, program support, or operational services.
  • Exceptional understanding of federal security contracting environments, preferably in physical and technical security, risk mitigation, or countermeasures support.
  • Prior experience advising capture or proposal teams targeting State Department contracts strongly preferred.
  • Discretion, professionalism, and a strong sense of integrity in facilitating client-facing interactions.
