Exercise Planner

The Opportunity:

Do you want to use your creativity, problem-solving, and storytelling skills to improve organizational mission performance in global defense? You understand there is no single or easy solution to prepare for the unforeseen. By creating and testing real-world scenarios, you know how to help DoD and allied government organizations make faster and smarter decisions based on data.

As an exercise planner on our team, you’ll develop, implement, and measure the effectiveness of plans and procedures for clients, creating rich content using Microsoft Office Suite and modeling and simulation tools to help you tell a realistic story. You’ll listen to client challenges and identify threats, gaps, or risks that need to be explored and provide a space for recommendations that will make lasting, real-world impact.

As a leader in the company's strategic exercises and wargaming practice, you’ll have the chance to work cross-functionally with senior military leaders, subject matter experts, and partners on projects that are making an impact on critical missions. You’ll share your expertise and collaborate with the industry’s best trainers and coaches through our custom “Train the Trainer” programs like wargame and exercise design and Joint or Combined operations planning.
