Government Contracts Project Manager

AlphaGov wins and delivers government classification, compensation, and workforce projects. We need a Project Manager to run contracts after award, with ownership of delivery rather than proposal or capture work.

The Project Manager will lead kickoff, schedule, workplan, risk tracking, SME coordination, client meetings, deliverables, invoicing coordination, status reporting, and closeout. Pre-award packaging and capture remain with the operations team; this role is focused on reliable post-award execution and client outcomes.

You will coordinate municipal, state, federal, and education stakeholders; maintain clear decision logs; manage dependencies and risks; organize quality reviews; and ensure that written deliverables are complete, timely, and aligned with contract requirements. The role is remote-first with occasional travel for client meetings or project needs. Familiarity with public-sector contracting norms, SAM and UEI concepts, and vendor coordination is valuable. PMP or equivalent experience is a plus but not required.
