- Look for ways to improve how the program runs and keep the work aligned with ICE's bigger-picture goals.
- Support briefings, presentations, training, and other activities that keep the program moving.
- Stay ahead of risks spotting them early, managing them, and keeping leadership informed.

- Advanced degree (MA/MS) with at least 10 years of relevant experience, or a bachelor's degree (BA/BS) with at least 15 years of relevant experience. Degree preferred in Business, Management, Policy, Accounting, Finance, Information Systems, or a similar field.
