Date Posted: 11/3/2026
Location: Fort Lauderdale, FL
Description
OWN THE PROJECT. DELIVER THE MISSION.
Lead meaningful U.S. government marine projects with a global engineering company. Take ownership from the first request for quotation through delivery—working directly with government customers and coordinating teams that keep critical vessels operating.
WHY THIS OPPORTUNITY?
Real ownership — manage government marine service projects from RFQ and proposal through execution.
- High-impact work — support vessels, major diesel equipment, and mission-critical service needs.
- Global backing — coordinate resources across Fort Lauderdale, Houston, Los Angeles, and worldwide operations.
- Florida lifestyle — work with an established Fort Lauderdale team; relocation assistance available.
THE OPPORTUNITY
Prepare quotations, plan projects, and manage scope, cost, schedules, resources, and delivery.
- Coordinate field service, engineering, workshop, and operational teams across locations.
- Communicate directly with U.S. government customers and manage project execution.
- Join a team ready to grow — make a visible contribution from day one.
MILITARY & CIVILIAN EXPERIENCE THAT TRANSLATES
You do not need to be a marine diesel expert or hold an engineering degree. The organization values people who can manage projects, navigate government-contract work, and deliver results.
- Military: Acquisition, logistics, program/project management, engineering operations, contracting support, or technical leadership; officers and experienced NCOs welcome.
- Civilian: Defense contractors, government-project coordinators/managers, contract administrators, and technical service project leaders.
- Especially valuable: Government contracting familiarity, RFQ/proposal experience, customer communication, and disciplined project execution.
PMP certification, bachelor's/engineering degree, FAR awareness, and marine diesel knowledge are advantages—not strict requirements.
COMPENSATION & INTERVIEW PROCESS
Base salary: Approximately $117,000 midpoint; compensation based on experience and fit.
- Relocation assistance available for qualified candidates moving to Fort Lauderdale.
- Initial virtual interview with the project leadership team; follow-up interview may include an on-site visit.
