Executive Assistant & Office Manager

Join the Mission. Support the Future of Air Force Command and Control.

Odyssey Systems seeks a proactive, detail-driven professional with a passion for guiding and aligning elite teams as part of the Air Force's most dynamic and cutting-edge acquisition organization to be our next Executive Assistant & Office Manager.

As the Executive Assistant and Office Manager, you will manage a broad range of senior-level administrative responsibilities while creating a positive, mission-focused experience for all staff and stakeholders.
