Job Description
JOB PURPOSE
Reporting to the Countermeasure Division Technical Operations Manager, The Technical Operations Administrator is a mission-critical execution role supporting the Technical Operations Team within the GXC Countermeasure Division. This position stabilizes day-to-day operational throughput by owning administrative, logistical, and coordination workflows across rentals, events, and field technician deployments—ensuring the right equipment, the right information, and the right travel/logistics are in place to meet client commitments.
The role interfaces continuously with internal stakeholders (Technical Operations, Sales, Finance, and Field Technicians), external clients, and third-party vendors (freight/shipping providers, venues, and travel partners). Success requires high attention to detail, disciplined documentation, and clear, professional communication.
This position also functions as a backup travel planner, responsible for booking technician travel (air, hotel, ground transportation) via Concur and approved hotel partner systems when the primary travel coordinator is unavailable.
The Technical Operations Administrator reports to the Technical Operations Manager and supports the Assistant Technical Operations Manager, including the preparation of quotes for service requests such as OPENGATE and PMD rentals and on-site technical support services.
This role will include specialized assignments aligned to GXC operational verticals (e.g., specific customer segments, regions, product lines, or deployment categories). Specialization is intended to increase accountability, deepen operational fluency, and improve cycle time and execution quality within assigned vertical responsibilities.
A core non-negotiable outcome of this role is to ensure technicians are fully equipped with all required job information and event details no less than 48 hours prior to deployment.
