The Operations Program Manager provides day-to-day leadership and oversight for a multidisciplinary operations support contract, ensuring that personnel, resources, schedules, and service requirements remain aligned with customer expectations. This individual manages a diverse portfolio of services that may include inventory and logistics support, duplication and print operations, fitness center administration, graphic design, mailroom services, parking support, and conference room and event coordination. The role requires a steady management presence capable of balancing competing priorities, maintaining service continuity, and promoting consistent performance across multiple functional areas.

As the primary point of contact for routine contract matters, the Operations Program Manager directs assigned staff, coordinates workload and coverage, monitors service quality, tracks deliverables, supports required reporting, and resolves operational or personnel issues before they affect performance. The position also requires effective interaction with senior military and civilian personnel, including familiarity with military ranks, customs, courtesies, and appropriate forms of address. Prior military service is preferred because it provides valuable insight into military organizational structures, protocols, and operating environments.

The successful candidate will bring strong leadership, communication, organization, and problem-solving skills, along with experience managing administrative, logistical, facilities, or general operations support services in a Federal, military, or similarly structured environment. This individual should be comfortable mentoring staff, reinforcing accountability, and coordinating across distinct service areas to ensure the contract operates as a unified and responsive program.
