Key Responsibilities & High-Impact Outcomes

• Resource & Budget Management: Oversee the Business Development and Capture budget (B&P and overhead resources), tracking spend against strategic priorities. Work across market segments to ensure resources are dynamically allocated to high-probability, high-value pursuits.
• Operating Rhythm & High-Impact Events: Plan, orchestrate, and execute high-impact strategic offsites, leadership syncs, quarterly business reviews (QBRs), and organization-wide All-Hands meetings. Build the agendas, manage the preparation, and track post-event actions.

Who You Are (The Ideal Candidate Profile)

• Assertive & Accountable: You have a natural sense of urgency and are comfortable constructively challenging busy Market Growth Leaders on pipeline health, budget burn, and deadline adherence.
• Relentlessly Proactive: You don't wait for instructions—you anticipate bottlenecks, spot gaps in the pipeline or calendar, and solve problems before they reach the SVP's desk.
• Highly Organized: You thrive in a fast-paced environment and know how to turn executive vision into structured, repeatable operational rhythms.
