Supply Chain Vistas – Entry Level Management Consultant Opportunity

Top Secret Eligible Resumes needed by 7.15 Entry Level Management Consultant Opportunity in Northern Virginia.

Supply Chain Vistas, one of the Supply Chain Visions family of companies www.scvistas.com, is recruiting to fill an entry level management consultant position in the Northern Virginia area.  Successful candidates will join a team competing for a three year contract (1 year base, two 1 year options) with the Joint Staff.   At Supply Chain Vistas, we align supply chain strategy and operations to support the mission, with a particular expertise in operational and interagency supply chain integration in non-permissive environments.
This competition centers on the Joint Staff J4 Joint Interagency Logistics Integration strategic planning efforts.   Military operations must be coordinated with the activities of other agencies of the United States Government regional organizations, coalition partners and the host nation. Interagency coordination forges the vital link between the military and the diplomatic, informational and economic instruments of power of the US Government. A capability gap exists in which disparate interagency resources, instruments and authorities make the planning and execution of joint interagency logistics cumbersome and inefficient. It is therefore necessary to develop a campaign plan for joint interagency logistics. The interagency logistics approach will be integrated into the overall Join Staff J4 strategy.
This is an ideal position for a recently retired junior officer (less than 10 years of experience) with significant interagency, coalition, or inter-service logistics experience in the deployed environment.
