Job Description

Description
Leidos is seeking a Project Plan Manager to support the Indo-Pacific Logistics and Sustainment Services (ILS2) contract in Hawai’i. This position develops and maintains project plans supporting contract execution and operational objectives across the ILS2 program. This position sits within the program's Emergent Operations team and must be able to shift project planning support to crisis action planning and contingency response on short notice. Job summary: As the Project Plan Manager for Emergent Operations, you will develop, maintain, and integrate project plans supporting contract execution, resource management, schedule performance, and cost management, the same core project planning discipline expected of Project Plan Managers across the ILS2 program. What distinguishes this position is the added requirement to apply that same planning discipline to emergent operations: crisis action planning, contingency response, and rapid re-planning when campaigning priorities are displaced by regional crises, natural disasters, or other government-directed events. Success in this role requires strong project planning fundamentals and the agility to pivot between long-range program planning and time-compressed crisis response planning.
