Job Description

VIGILINT is a unique medical operations company that provides advisory, planning, logistics, medical operations, and crisis management services to government and commercial clients worldwide. We specialize in operating in austere, high-risk, and complex environments, delivering reliable medical support where it matters most.

VIGILINT is seeking a Program Manager – ILS2 to lead our medical operations in support of the Indo-Pacific Logistics and Sustainment Services (ILS2) program.

ILS2 provides integrated logistics, sustainment, and mission-enabling support to U.S. military operations throughout the Indo-Pacific region. As part of this broader mission, VIGILINT delivers expeditionary medical capabilities supporting personnel recovery, casualty evacuation (CASEVAC), medical transport, and other operational requirements in complex and austere environments.

The Program Manager is responsible for end-to-end accountability for VIGILINT's program performance, including deployed personnel, operational readiness, contractual commitments, financial results, and customer relationships. Working closely with medical leadership, aviation partners, the prime contractor, and corporate support teams, this individual will ensure reliable execution of medical support requirements across geographically dispersed locations.

This is a hands-on leadership role for a builder who can establish effective processes, lead distributed teams, and translate complex operational requirements into reliable execution. Success requires sound judgment, financial discipline, clear communication under pressure, and the ability to coordinate across organizational boundaries as mission priorities evolve.
