In this role, you will be the administrative and operational heartbeat of our team, acting as a force multiplier for project tasks, deliverables, and cross-team collaboration. We are looking for a disciplined, self-motivated "go-getter" who exhibits exceptional digital literacy, thrives under pressure, and takes pride in driving tasks to a successful completion under government direction.

  • Project Lifecycles: Track project tasks, schedules, and deliverables using tools like Microsoft Planner, MS Lists, and Jira to keep all milestones aligned.
  • Issue Resolution: Identify potential project bottlenecks and take the initiative to address them or escalate them to leadership as necessary.
  • Information & Data Management
  • Consolidate Data: Gather, organize, and compile data from multiple sources—including Microsoft Lists, Excel, Confluence, and OneNote—to support executive-level reporting.
  • Standardization: Document project workflows, create standard operating procedures (SOPs), and manage the central division calendar to ensure data consistency.
  • Operations Support: Assist the Division Manager and Branch Managers with ad-hoc operations, coordinating responses to internal data calls, and helping manage inventory/assets as needed.

Qualifications:
Required: 

  • Experience: 2 to 5+ years of experience in project coordination, task tracking, executive administrative support, or a related operational role.
  • Advanced Digital Literacy: Highly proficient within the Microsoft 365 suite, specifically in using:
  • Microsoft Lists (navigating, updating, and structuring list views to manage team data).
  • Microsoft Planner, Teams, OneNote, Word, Excel, and Outlook.

Presentation & Communication Mastery:

  • Proven capability to host virtual or in-person meetings, share screens, and navigate tools and dashboards smoothly during live presentations.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with a track record of producing clear, professional briefs, agendas, and minutes.

Professional Persona:

  • A proactive "go-getter" mindset—someone who anticipates team needs and tackles them without waiting for instruction.
  • Superb organizational skills with a strong eye for detail and the agility to manage shifting priorities.

Security & Location Requirements:

  • Must be a U.S. Citizen.
  • Must be able to obtain and maintain a DoD Secret security clearance.
