Project Manager, Operations Management, Change Management

Help Shape the Future of Army Aviation Training

We are looking for an experienced Army Aviation professional and project manager to support the development and advancement of aviation training and schoolhouse capabilities at Fort Novosel.

This is an opportunity to move beyond simply managing projects. The successful candidate will work directly with Army Aviation leadership, schoolhouse organizations, instructors, subject‑matter experts, and industry partners to identify opportunities, solve complex training challenges, and turn ideas into executable solutions.

The right person will understand Army Aviation from the inside — how units operate, how training is developed and delivered, and what it takes to move an idea from a requirement to a fielded capability.

You will serve as a project‑management and aviation subject‑matter resource supporting initiatives that improve the way Army Aviation trains and prepares its Soldiers.

• Leading aviation training and schoolhouse development initiatives from concept through execution
• Working directly with leaders and key stakeholders to define requirements and desired outcomes
• Identifying training gaps, capability shortfalls, and opportunities for improvement
• Developing and executing project plans, schedules, milestones, and deliverables
• Bringing together stakeholders from across Army Aviation, government, and industry
• Leading working groups, demonstrations, and key engagements
• Translating operational requirements into practical training solutions
• Supporting the development and integration of emerging aviation technologies and capabilities
• Providing leaders with clear analysis, recommendations, and decision products
• Managing competing priorities while maintaining momentum toward project objectives

We are looking for someone who has lived Army Aviation, understands the training enterprise, and knows how to get things done.

• Experience in aviation training, doctrine, operations, or institutional development
• Demonstrated project or program management experience
• The ability to engage confidently with military and civilian leaders
• Strong communication, briefing, and presentation skills
• The ability to turn complex problems into practical solutions
• Experience coordinating across multiple organizations and stakeholders
• A proven ability to work independently and take ownership of projects

• Army Aviation schoolhouse or training‑development experience
• Experience at the Aviation Center of Excellence
• Project Management Professional (PMP) certification
• Master’s degree in organizational leadership, business, project management, education, or a related field
• Experience working with government and industry partners
• Current or recently held U.S. Government security clearance

Army Aviation is continually evolving. New aircraft, technologies, training requirements, and operational demands require the Army to continually rethink how it develops and prepares its aviation professionals.

This position provides an opportunity to be part of that process.

The successful candidate will have the ability to influence training, work alongside Army Aviation leaders, and help develop solutions that can have a lasting impact on the Aviation enterprise.

If you are an experienced Army Aviation professional who wants to continue serving the Aviation community and help shape what comes next, we would like to hear from you.
