As written by Harmattan AI · Read the original
About the Role
You will own the pathway end to end: sourcing partner-nation opportunities, working them through the U.S. government system, and closing them yourself, with live cases waiting rather than a function to build on paper.
Responsibilities
Own the US FMS and security cooperation pipeline against a number, source, qualify, advance and close partner-nation opportunities.
Move partners from stated interest to funded action: formal requirement, Letter of Request, Letter of Offer and Acceptance.
Choose the right pathway for each case — FMS, DCS, BPC or FMF — and build the funding and approval strategy behind it.
Map and work the decision-makers in your field
Drive releasability, exportability and licensing to resolution with internal legal, engineering and program teams.
Get Harmattan onboarded as an approved supplier in target nations, and unblock stalled cases by finding the real constraint.
Requirements

Security Cooperation Depth: Real FMS and security cooperation experience — case and LOA development, funding authorities, pathway selection — plus ITAR and export control fluency, foreign supplier onboarding, embassy-level engagement
Complex Project Management: Avid learner with a demonstrated capacity to handle large-scale, complex projects – offering innovative solutions and leading teams to deliver outstanding results.
Adaptability & Mobility: Thrives under pressure in a fast-paced, dynamic environment; embraces a "no-task-is-too-small" mentality. Willing to travel as cases require.
