About The Position

Critical decisions are made every single day in support of our nation's defense. As a Mission Manager, you can use your technical, operational, and military experience to develop actionable intelligence for our client. As a Mission Manager on our team, you'll play a critical role in helping our client understand their operational battlespace and the national-level threats in that space. You'll gain an understanding of a multitude of different collection platforms and tools as you explore new data sources and combine information from disparate sources, including SIGINT, GEOINT, OSINT, and open-source. You'll validate the information and apply client tradecraft as you help build assessments on strategic-level targets within your assigned area of responsibility (AOR). You'll become the authority on your target set, AOR, and operational tools, so our client will look to you for time-critical recommendations, often under pressure. This is a chance to define your expertise and develop new skills in incorporating raw and often time-sensitive intelligence paired with a multitude of platforms and tools, enabling you to affect the targeting narrative and picture. You'll drive complex worldwide operations to develop actionable intelligence against the highest priorities. You'll work with a team where you will share your skills, expertise, and hunger for solutions with other analysts. You'll have direct leadership opportunities for leading mission partners in a 24/7/365 operations environment. We focus on growing as a team to deliver the best support to our customers and use multiple resources for mentoring and learning new skills and tools.
