Employer job description
From EchoStar's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
This role serves as an operational force multiplier within the Executive Office, driving governance, cross-functional delivery, and strategic rhythm across satellite communications, wireless, and enterprise programs. The position resolves operational bottlenecks, bridges technical silos, and mitigates cross-departmental delivery risks by establishing structured program tracking and accountability cadences.
Operating at the intersection of business strategy, technology execution, and leadership oversight, the role aligns enterprise milestones with organizational objectives. Centralized program management, automated reporting workflows, and continuous risk assessment ensure transparent decision-making and operational velocity for executive leadership.
What Success Looks Like (Objectives):
Direct the planning, operational rhythm, and governance cadences for senior leadership, translating enterprise objectives into actionable milestones and measurable team OKRs
Track cross-functional program dependencies, milestones, and risk registers across technical, operational, and commercial business units to eliminate delivery blockers and ensure on-time execution
Synthesize complex quantitative data, financial metrics, and operational updates into board-ready briefing decks, executive summaries, and monthly business reviews (MBRs)
Manage operational workstreams, stakeholder alignment, and security protocols for high-visibility governance sessions, cleared customer site visits, and strategic defense engagements
- Implement AI tools and workflow automation platforms to optimize project tracking, streamline information synthesis, and accelerate executive reporting cycles
- Drive post-meeting accountability across executive staff by logging action items, monitoring cross-departmental commitments, and tracking deliverable closures
- Core Skills, Competencies, and Key Experiences (What you’ll bring)
- Active TS/SCI security clearance or demonstrated eligibility to obtain and maintain TS/SCI
- Critical experience directing high-stakes operational programs, cross-functional initiatives, or executive office operations within fast-paced or matrixed environments
- Applied AI Literacy to automate data analysis, synthesize multi-stakeholder updates, and streamline cross-departmental documentation workflows
- Advanced capability in data interpretation, financial acumen, and curating executive-level presentations, roadmaps, and business cases for senior leadership and governing bodies
- Strong skills in program management methodologies, executive governance frameworks, and driving complex cross-functional deliverables to on-time completion
Decision making and sound judgment when mitigating operational risks, navigating stakeholder trade-offs, and managing sensitive corporate or classified information with absolute discretion
Collaboration and influence without formal authority to bridge disparate organizational silos, align senior stakeholders, and maintain organizational accountability
Additional Qualifications:
Experience operating within defense, aerospace, telecommunications, satellite communications, or government contracting sectors, including familiarity with security access systems such as DISS
Exposure to corporate development, restructuring, or enterprise-scale transaction environments requiring strict information discipline
Experience managing operational workflows for board-level initiatives or institutional investor interactions
