Description

Senior Contracts Manager – Tactical Leadership in DoD Contracting

Location: Huntsville, Alabama

Employment Type: Full-Time

Clearance Level: Secret (Active or Obtainable)

About The Mission

As a premier defense contractor supporting top-tier DoD initiatives, we move fast, think strategically, and deliver relentlessly. Our contracts team isn’t just a support function—it’s a frontline unit that keeps missions compliant, funded, and firing on all cylinders.

What You'll Command

This isn’t contract administration—it’s operational strategy. You’ll own the cradle-to-closeout cycle on high-value, high-visibility contracts and be the linchpin between our programs and the federal government.

  • Lead contract negotiations with authority and tactical insight
  • Advise executives on FAR/DFARS compliance and regulatory warfare
  • Structure complex agreements: CPFF, FFP, T&M, IDIQ
  • Develop subcontracting strategies that reinforce our mission readiness
  • Architect audit-proof files and CPSR-aligned systems
  • Mitigate risk like it's second nature—because in defense, it is
  • Drive rapid-fire improvements across processes and platforms

You Bring

  • Bachelor’s in business, Law, or a related field (JD/MBA welcome)
  • 7+ years executing DoD contracts with technical mastery
  • CPCM Certification preferred
  • Mastery of FAR, DFARS, and the defense acquisition alphabet soup
  • Confident communicator, tough negotiator, and decisive strategist
  • Secret clearance (or ability to obtain)
  • CPSR veteran and compliance sharp-shooter
  • Performs other duties as assigned.
  • Ensure continuous improvement of the department within the Quality Management System (ISO 9001, AS9100) and assigned Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).

What You Get

  • Competitive pay that reflects elite performance
  • Medical, dental, vision, disability, and life insurance
  • Flexible schedules that respect your time and talents
  • Tuition assistance and leadership development tracks
  • Culture built for contractors, not administrators

This is your chance to lead from the front. If you're looking for a role that blends technical expertise with operational impact, hit apply. Let’s get your boots on the ground—figuratively speaking—and take defense contracting to the next level.
