This opportunity is for an experienced, motivated and organized candidate to integrate best-practices to create successful Capture teams and own new pursuits across all phases of activity. The Capture Manager role reports to the Director of Global Military Sales within a matrix organizational structure and also serves as an initial program manager (PM) for the opportunity, until handed off to the execution PM.
