About the role
Head of Range Modernization Programs, Senior Manager
The Opportunity:
Responsibilities
Leads the execution and growth of a portfolio of complex aerospace and hypersonic development programs. Works closely with an integrated leadership team to establish program strategy, manage, control, and deliver portfolio scope, and ensure successful execution across engineering, supply chain, manufacturing, assembly, integration, and test activities. Provides leadership and direction to program managers and the program management office while establishing the processes, tools, operating cadence, and performance metrics required for predictable program execution.
Drives completion of programs to aggressive development and delivery timelines while operating within contractual, budget, resource, technical, and quality requirements. Owns portfolio-level risk management and ensures risks, issues, and opportunities are identified, escalated, and resolved appropriately. Partners with engineering, supply chain, operations, contracts, finance, quality, and business development leadership to ensure alignment of resources and priorities.
Serves as a senior customer interface and communicates program and portfolio status to internal and external stakeholders, including senior government and industry customers. Negotiates scope, schedule, resources, priorities, and contractual commitments to ensure program success. Develops and mentors program leadership and establishes a high-performing organization capable of executing increasingly complex and large-scale programs.
In addition to program execution responsibilities, the Head of Programs leads strategic capture and business development efforts to expand the portfolio. This includes shaping opportunities well in advance of formal solicitations, developing competitive technical and management approaches, and partnering with business development, engineering, contracts, and pricing teams to position Booz Allen for successful bids. The role drives early and meaningful engagement with senior government and industry stakeholders, orchestrates cross-functional capture teams, informs price‑to‑succeed strategies, and ensures proposal development reflects both client mission needs and Booz Allen’s differentiated capabilities. The Head of Programs strengthens relationships across the acquisition and contracting community, contributes to win strategies and teaming decisions, and advances growth through disciplined capture planning, solutioning, and preparation for new pursuits.
