We are seeking an accomplished Program Manager to lead a large, multi-disciplinary enterprise support program for a national security customer. You will be the single accountable leader for all contractor and subcontractor personnel (approximately 33 staff across 26 labor categories) supporting five customer business areas: enterprise resources (program, contract, financial, and logistics management), plans and policy (strategic planning, policy, technology transfer, organizational development, communications, and engagement), security operations, human resources, and legal support.

• Requirements Tracking & Continuous Monitoring:
  Use industry best practices and proven methods to track and document requirements and activities so the customer can continuously monitor and evaluate performance.
