You will provide strategic vision and tactical program management with respect to defining and establishing the facilities and infrastructure necessary for intermediate and depot level maintenance.

- Excellent leadership, communication, and interpersonal skills with the ability to collaborate effectively with diverse teams and stakeholders.
- Excellence in written communication skills is mandatory. Samples of writing will be requested.
- Demonstrated ability to manage multiple projects and priorities under a tight timeline within a fixed budget.
- Strong fact-finding, problem-solving, and decision-making skills supported by a willingness to accept authority and accountability for program success.
- Working knowledge of Foreign Military Sales (FMS), attack submarine sustainment (O/I/D level maintenance), with shipyard or submarine tender maintenance experience a plus.
- Proficiency in MS 365 applications
- PMP or equivalent is desired
- PE in civil, mechanical, or electrical engineering is desired.
- Must be a U.S. citizen
