  • Strong executive presence and ability to work effectively with senior leaders and cross-functional teams.
  • Excellent writing, presentation, and communication skills.
  • Experience managing agencies, vendors, and external partners.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience in aerospace, defense, space, or another complex technology sector is highly preferred.
