The Tomahawk FRP20/21 Production Program Manager will be responsible for managing all efforts associated with executing FRP20/21 contract. While reporting directly to the Production Director, the PM will work closely with and supplement the FRP18/19 Production Program Manager responsibilities with a primary focus on acceleration to maximize contract incentives. 

The Production PM will be part of the leadership team responsible for leading the team that achieves the highest combined production and recertification rates in the history of the program. The quickly expanding customer base, both DoD and FMS, and the timing of the fielded Blk IV weapon’s 15-year recert cycle, is driving a factory capacity ramp that will nearly triple the current throughput expectation of the Tomahawk factories. The leaders of Tomahawk production new builds will lead as part of a program strategy that divides the production and recertification efforts between three Associate Directors who will partner effectively to achieve individual contract success, and Tomahawk program success, while managing shared factory resources and leveraging procurement synergies. This position requires proficiency in leading dynamic production problem solving, cross functional teams, managing a high visibility effort, driving communication of project goals/objectives/decisions and results to team, customers, and leadership. 

This role offers a unique opportunity to be a key leader on an effort that answers an unprecedented resurgence in demand for one of the most recognizable franchise programs at Raytheon and one of the most successfully combat proven weapon systems ever. An optimal candidate will have experience in production and supply base acceleration, earned value implementation, building customer relationships, and experience in effectively managing and adapting program cadence for successful execution
