Operations Senior Consultant (GPS)
Position Summary
Do you keep projects and tasks moving, align stakeholders, and drive crisp decisions and follow-through-turning priorities into measurable progress? Can you juggle a dozen competing priorities and still translate them into a clear plan and an executive-ready deck-fast? If so, the Operations Senior Consultant role supporting the Government & Public Services (GPS) Office of the Chief Operations Officer (OCOO) might be for you.
Work You Will Do
The Operations Senior Consultant advances priority initiatives through disciplined execution, cross-functional coordination, and exceptional executive-level communications. This role is ideal for someone who can quickly synthesize complex inputs into concise leadership-ready briefings, manage multiple concurrent priorities, and operate independently in a fast-moving environment where priorities shift frequently. On any given assignment, the Operations Senior Consultant may be responsible for the following activities:
Executive Communications & Briefings
- Develop executive-ready materials (briefings, talking points, leadership readouts, meeting agendas, and written updates) aligned to OCOO objectives and voice.
- Synthesize complex and ambiguous inputs into clear "what / so-what / now-what" messages for senior audiences.
- Create and refine executive-level presentations, including storyboarding, structuring key messages, and producing polished decks under tight timelines.
Initiative and Workstream Execution
- Support multiple OCOO initiatives by building workplans, tracking milestones, and driving follow-through with stakeholders.
- Maintain action trackers, decision logs, and next steps to ensure momentum and accountability.
Cross-Functional Coordination
- Coordinate across teams to gather inputs, manage dependencies, align deliverables, and surface risks, tradeoffs, and recommendations.
- Drive clarity on owners, timelines, and expectations to keep work moving.
Prioritization and Independent ownership
- Triage competing requests, pivot quickly as priorities change, and maintain quality under pressure.
- Own deliverables end-to-end with minimal direction: clarify the ask, propose an approach, deliver, and incorporate feedback rapidly.
The Team
The OCOO is a dynamic, fast-paced team that helps drive and deliver on top GPS priorities. The OCOO supports the GPS Chief Operations Officer (COO), who oversees GPS operations-providing end-to-end finance and operational support across the GPS business. Working at the center of the action, the OCOO connects stakeholders, drives execution against key initiatives, and helps ensure GPS has the operational foundation to perform and grow.
Qualifications
Required:
- Bachelor's degree.
- 3+ years of experience in project management or a comparable role in a complex, matrixed environment.

- 3+ years of demonstrated exceptional communication and presentation delivery, including:
- Ability to synthesize complex or incomplete information into clear, executive-ready messages.
- Proficiency in storyboarding and delivering executive-level briefings and presentations (logical storyline, persuasive structure, polished materials under time constraints).
- Ability to rapidly incorporate feedback and iterate materials to improve clarity, alignment, and executive readiness.
- Must be legally authorized to work in the United States without the need for employer sponsorship, now or any time in the future.
- Ability to travel 25%, on average, based on the work you do and the initiatives you support.
Preferred:
- Experience supporting leadership in an operations or strategy execution capacity.
- Experience establishing operating rhythm artifacts (agendas, readouts, action tracking) and supporting governance cadences (weekly status, leadership updates).
- Familiarity with the GPS operating environment and cross-functional Enterprise Solutions teams (e.g., Finance, Contracts, Talent, Risk, Technology).
- Ability to work independently with sound judgment and high discretion; anticipate needs and drive work forward proactively.
- Strong collaboration and stakeholder management skills; able to build alignment without direct authority.
- Flexibility and resilience in a fast-paced environment with shifting priorities
