Summary Generated by Built In

We are seeking a high-impact Executive Assistant to join our Federal Division and serve as a strategic force multiplier for our two Presidents. Operating through Breakthrough thinking, you will drive executive excellence by orchestrating high-stakes meetings, managing complex travel and calendars, and acting as a trusted liaison between these two Leaders, to create efficient, prioritized and impactful meetings. Beyond traditional support, you will manage operational readiness by tracking Federal contract requirements, maintaining visibility into division performance through intelligent reporting and dashboard creation, and accelerating cross-functional collaboration to ensure our team operates at peak performance.

The ideal candidate possesses federal industry experience and advanced proficiency in the Microsoft Office Suite, including PowerPoint.
