The Opportunity:

CACI is seeking an exceptionally motivated Lead Program Analyst to join our team starting up a new contract for developing next generation digital engineering and digital warfare systems for the Department of Defense (DoD). As a Lead Program Analyst, you will work closely with the Program Manager to develop the organization’s operating model and be responsible for creating, executing, and maintaining all of the processes and procedures necessary for smooth program execution. As the team grows, the Lead Analyst will work closely with other members of the organization’s management team on business operations including personnel management, process management, procurement, and program execution. The Lead Analyst will also be responsible for hiring and managing a team of project support analysts as additional staff become required.

Responsibilities:

As a member of the management team, the Lead Analyst will support various tasks, unique and recurring in nature, and critical to the success of the program. The Lead Analyst will have sole responsibility for specific team functions, while providing a supporting role in others. Tasks range from simple purchasing to more complex reporting and tracking. The Lead Analyst is expected to evaluate the existing program’s execution, identify areas of improvement or new areas needing developing, and progressively close program execution gaps as they are identified.

Ideal candidates are motivated self-starters who thrive in a fast-paced team environment and have exceptional attention to detail. The ideal candidate will be adaptable to varying management styles and work environments, including customer facing and virtual.  A willingness to dive into and take ownership of tasks that are outside of comfort zones is an imperative.  This position demands that the individual be unafraid to ask questions in order to understand roles and responsibilities in an effort to be fully capable of independently executing tasking. An ability to think critically and analytically is important.

The primary responsibilities for this position are listed below.

• Propose, develop, and deploy processes and workflows for all aspects of program execution. This includes new process and improvements/modifications of existing processes as needed.
• Execute and track various pieces of organizational information including contract deliverables, employee training completion, badge processing, internal purchasing, and other mass organization data calls.
• Support development of contract monthly reports, including maintenance of reporting templates for each project, assembly of the report, and editorial proof reading and cleanup of the final versions.
• Research tools to streamline program management, make recommendations, and implement and deploy their use.
• Take ownership of the above tasks, while also continuously looking for other tasks or projects to own or support as new ones emerge.

Qualifications:

Required: 

• Bachelor’s degree from an accredited university
• 5 years of experience supporting DoD program execution
• Experience organizing team workflows to streamlining operations
• Intermediate skills in Microsoft Word and Excel
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills

Desired: 

• Bachelor’s degree in a STEM field or business, economics, or finance
