You will have regular interactions with partner companies, technology SMEs, and customers. This role requires a strategic professional with demonstrated experience operating at the intersection of public policy, government affairs, technology innovation, and business strategy. 

The real impact of project management comes from communication to ensure the program 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 influence a meaningful mission while learning how to develop and maintain program strategy.
