Location : Reston, VA (4–5 days / week in office)

About the Role

We are seeking a Contracts Manager to lead and centralize the contracts function for a growing government contractor. This newly created position offers high visibility and ownership of the full contract lifecycle across federal engagements. You’ll work closely with delivery teams, operations, and executive leadership to ensure compliance and drive process improvements.

Key Responsibilities

  • Administer and manage federal and commercial contracts, NDAs, consulting agreements, and subcontractor arrangements.

  • Collaborate cross-functionally with program managers, finance, and legal.
  • Lead contract operations and support strategic initiatives like agreement refreshes and naming conventions.

Ideal Candidate Profile

  • 8+ years of contracts experience in federal or commercial environments.
  • Strong working knowledge of FAR / DFARS and federal acquisition processes.
  • Experience with firm-fixed price contracts (no cost-reimbursable work).
  • Comfortable in a high-velocity, hands-on environment—ideally from a small or mid-sized company.
  • Certifications such as CFCM, CCCM, or CPCM are preferred.
  • Background in defense contracting is a plus.
  • Technically savvy, self-starter, and highly organized.
  • Culture & Team

  • Reports directly to the COO.
  • No direct reports initially, but high visibility across the organization.
  • Works closely with program managers and operations staff.
  • Office-centric culture with flexibility; leadership is accessible and collaborative.
