- Develop, maintain, and improve operational dashboards, trackers, and recurring reports covering program status, staffing, deliverables, and key performance indicators.
- Coordinate the corporate battle rhythm: schedule and prepare operations reviews and leadership meetings, build agendas and briefing materials, capture action items, and track them to closure.
- Analyze operational data to identify trends, risks, and opportunities; prepare findings and recommendations for the Director of Operations and executive leadership.
- Support contract operations, including monitoring period-of-performance milestones, deliverable schedules, and contract data requirements in coordination with program and contracts staff.
- Assist with resource and staffing management, including onboarding coordination, seat/asset tracking, and maintaining personnel rosters and org charts.
- Draft, maintain, and continuously improve standard operating procedures (SOPs), process documentation, and corporate policies.
- Support proposal and business development activities as needed, including data calls, past-performance inputs, and coordination of internal reviews.
- Coordinate with finance, HR, security, and contracts functions to resolve operational issues and keep cross-functional efforts on track.
- Support compliance and audit readiness activities, including maintaining records and artifacts required under government contracts.
- Handle special projects and time-sensitive taskings on behalf of the Director of Operations with minimal supervision.
