About the Role

You'll be far more than an executive scheduler.

• Oversee executive calendars, meetings, and travel logistics with precision while protecting the President's time for strategic work
• Coordinate cross-functional initiatives and track progress on major business objectives and organizational priorities
• Prepare strategic briefings, reports, and presentations for senior leadership, board meetings, and external stakeholders
• Manage operational workflows, project timelines, and deliverables across the Intelligence & Cyber Business Group
• Support recruitment, onboarding, and retention initiatives; serve as a cultural ambassador
• Ensure compliance with company policies, federal contracting regulations, and security protocols
• Build and maintain relationships with internal leaders, government partners, and external contacts
• Identify process improvements and implement systems that enhance operational efficiency

What We're Looking For

• 7+ years of executive assistant, operations, or business management experience, ideally in a fast-paced, regulated environment
• Top Secret security clearance, or ability to obtain one
• Demonstrated ability to manage multiple priorities, think strategically, and anticipate organizational needs
• Strong written and verbal communication skills; polished presentation abilities
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office, calendar management, and project tracking tools
• Experience supporting senior executives or C-suite professionals preferred
• Knowledge of federal contracting, government relations, or the defense sector valued
