AFCAP provides critical logistics, construction, and base-support capabilities around the world, helping the Air Force respond quickly to emergencies, contingency operations, and evolving mission requirements.
As the Program Manager, you will play a highly visible leadership role with responsibility for the successful execution of the contract and associated task orders.

This is an exciting opportunity for a proven program leader who thrives in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment and is ready to lead complex, globally dispersed operations while responding to urgent requirements.

Ensure compliance with contract requirements, task-order requirements, security obligations, cybersecurity standards, ethics requirements, CTIP, host-nation laws, and applicable federal and DoD regulations.
Establish governance for schedule, cost, risk, performance metrics, reporting, corrective actions, and continuous improvement.
Oversee Site Managers and task-order teams and confirm that key personnel and deployed staff meet qualification, clearance, training, medical, and readiness requirements.
Manage Government and customer relationships and provide timely, transparent status, risk, and decision information.
Maintain accurate key-contact information and notify the Government of proposed key-personnel changes within required timeframes.
Required Qualifications
Current active Secret security clearance.
Bachelor’s degree in business, engineering, construction management, logistics, program management, or a related field.
5+ years of program management experience within the last seven years.
Demonstrated expertise in Government appropriations.

Experience managing construction, services, and commodities requirements.
Strong knowledge of Government acquisition processes.
Demonstrated experience simultaneously managing multiple task orders valued above $2 million each in geographically dispersed locations, or equivalent deployment experience.
