About The Position

The Opportunity: Are you searching for a position where you can use your project management and analysis skills to develop a project from concept to completion? A program requires a significant investment in limited resources and with that constraint, you will need to keep the project on a productive path. That’s why we need you, a Project Management Specialist who can help ensure success through careful analysis and effective communication. On our team, you’ll provide program and project management expertise while supporting a DoD client in its establishment and management of enterprise-wide Commercial-off-the-Shelf (COTS) Information Technology (IT) products and services procurement vehicles. You’ll work with client leadership to manage cost, schedule, and performance as well as support development and execution of CIO-level IT Asset Management (ITAM) policy. In support of these efforts, you will be using tools like Microsoft Excel to assist with budgets and tracking information, Microsoft Project to manage schedules, Microsoft Word to develop contractual and other technical documents, and Microsoft PowerPoint to develop presentations. The real power of project management comes from communication to ensure the government achieves its goals and meets our quality standards. At Booz Allen, we recognize that we must continuously grow as a team to bring the best support to our clients, so here you’ll have all the resources to succeed. This is a chance to directly impact a meaningful mission while growing your skills in program strategy. Work with us and help make sure our DoD acquisition programs accomplish their project goals within budget as we improve IT capabilities for the military. Join us. The world can’t wait.
