About the role

  • Develop, implement, and manage the Exodus Project Management Plan (PM Plan) to ensure deliverables meet all contractual, technical, and quality standards.
  • Serve as the primary liaison between the Contractor Support Services (CSS) team, Government COR, and program stakeholders.
  • Participate in weekly Exodus Operations meetings to capture requirement changes, new task triggers, and funding adjustments, ensuring plans remain current and actionable.
  • Work closely with government financial managers to validate commitments, obligations, and expenditures in alignment with Navy fiscal-year cycles, continuing resolutions, and funding expiration rules.
  • Maintain and refine a complex, multi-customer cost-sharing model in Excel, using advanced functions (defined names, SUMIFS/COUNTIFS, INDEX, MATCH, pivot tables) to accurately track and project recurring and non-recurring costs across customers.
  • Analyze and forecast plan-vs-actual-vs-projection data to support budget formulation, variance analysis, and accurate financial reporting.
  • Apply cost accounting and mathematical principles to support pricing, cost estimating, revenue planning, and annual financial forecasts.
  • Collaborate with government PMs, COR, program analysts, and engineers to develop cost estimates, translate technical requirements into financial impacts, and communicate model results clearly to all audiences.
  • Recommend process or contract improvements that enhance quality, accuracy, and timeliness of deliverables while maintaining compliance with safety and security requirements.
  • Lead and mentor project staff to ensure alignment with program objectives, promoting knowledge transfer and consistency in cost modeling and project reporting.
  • Demonstrate expert-level Excel and analytical skills, applying relational data concepts and quantitative reasoning to strengthen cost models and financial accuracy.
  • Maintain understanding of IT networks and system-level architectures to accurately relate customer requirements to resource use and associated costs.
