  • Maintain accurate records in government systems and internal tools
  • Performance Tracking: Measure the impact of innovation initiatives on win rates, contract value, and delivery outcomes. Provide regular reports and recommendations to leadership

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, Public Administration, Political Science, Information Technology, or a related field required
  • Master’s degree or PMP/CAPM certification preferred
  • 3-5 years of experience in program/project coordination, preferably supporting federal government contracts
  • Exposure to government contracting environment (prime or subcontractor) is highly desirable
  • Internship or entry-level experience in consulting, defense, or federal services is a plus
  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills — ability to draft professional emails, reports, and briefings
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office 365 (Excel, Project, PowerPoint, Teams, SharePoint)
  • Basic understanding of project management principles and government contracting processes
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment with changing priorities
