Managing and coordinating program documentation activities to assure compatibility with technical and programmatic goals and compliance with ARPA-H Strategic Resources Office (SRO) and SPEAR policies and procedures
Coordination of program documents to include Program Approval Documents (PADs), Memoranda of Agreement (MOAs), and quad charts
Compiling information from PMs, copying and binding briefings and reports, formatting slides, planning pre-brief review sessions, providing hard copies, submitting read-ahead documents, obtaining the appropriate releasability through the ARPA-H process, and other related efforts

Bachelor’s degree in any field – substantial relevant occupational experience (11 or more years) may be considered in lieu of degree requirement
At least six (6) years relevant experience
The demonstrated professionalism, maturity, sound judgement, and excellent communication and interpersonal skills necessary for daily interactions with executive-level audiences in a dynamic, high-visibility Front Office environment

Experience in project management, process improvement, and budget analysis
Project Management Professional (PMP) certification
