Responsibilities
LMI is seeking a driven, execution-focused Program Manager to stand up and operate a network of technical communications facilities across multiple locations. This is a builder’s role: the Program Manager will take the program from day one through delivery, owning an aggressive milestone-based schedule and turning plans into results. We’re looking for someone who thrives in a start-up environment, takes ownership without waiting to be asked, and knows how to drive a geographically dispersed team of technical and functional leads to on-time, on-budget outcomes.
Primary duties include:
• Serve as the single point of accountability for program cost, schedule, and performance across all facility locations.
• Drive execution against a firm, milestone-based delivery schedule—anticipating obstacles, removing roadblocks, and keeping deliverables moving.
• Stand up program operations from the ground up, including kickoff, integrated master scheduling, staffing pipeline activation, and early wins that build customer confidence.
• Manage and mentor a geographically dispersed team of functional and technical leads, setting a fast pace and high standard.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with government customers, subcontractors, and industry partners.
• Identify and shape follow-on and adjacent opportunities that grow the program through demonstrated delivery.
• Report program status, risks, and opportunities to executive leadership and the customer with candor and urgency.
• Ensure compliance with contractual, security, and quality requirements across all sites.
Location: This position is based in the Washington, DC metro area, with travel to program locations.
Travel: This position requires approximately 25-50% travel to support activities across multiple program locations.
Qualifications
Required:
• Bachelor’s degree in a related field.
• 10+ years of program management experience, including experience with federal government programs.
• Demonstrated track record of delivering complex programs on time and on budget—a bias for action and results.
• Experience standing up new facilities, programs, or operations from initial start-up.
• Strong communication, leadership, and relationship-management skills.
• Demonstrated experience leading or supporting large, geographically dispersed teams.
