Control Account Manager
Panama City,FL

Summary

Experienced Government Contract Control Account Manager that plays an active and critical role in the Earned Value Management System, and with the Planning Department, in the shipbuilding industry. I am responsible for the planning, coordination, and achievement of all work within my assigned Control Accounts. I provide a single authority for all scope, technical data, and cost assessment/tracking for my Control Accounts related to building United States Coast Guard (USCG) Offshore Patrol Cutters (OPC).


I work closely with the Machinist Craft Superintendent to assist in the planning, fabrication, and installation of various systems across four ships. Currently, I track and report any equipment that is installed, systems that are in Machinists Craft control, and work with other departments to ensure these systems are brought online within schedule.


I work close with on site contractors to make sure their operations are on time and within budget. I review and approve contractor time sheets and provide critical charge code information to reduce the possibilities of mischarged to contract control accounts. I closely monitor the Integrated Master Schedule to ensure our assigned activities are not missed or behind schedule.


I communicate with Hull Managers to coordinate materials needed to fabricate systems ahead of schedule to avoid overrun scheduling variances.


I have worked as a GS-12 government contractor for the U.S. Department of State and the Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement. I was responsible to visiting local government elements in Iraq and coordinate efforts with the U.S. Military leadership personnel to rebuild many of the government ran offices that had been destroyed to enemy or U.S. attack. I also re-designed policy, leadership structure, and prvided training and field operation mentorship to Iraqi leadership to prepare them for operation.


I owned and operated an online business in contract with the Walt Disney World Travel Company. I handled my own marketing, website design, work schedule and business plan.


I have worked as a Police officer, Drug Investigator, Detective, SWAT team member and Community Police Officer. I am skilled in detailed report writing and court testimony.


I believe I offer a very interesting mix of skills and experience to any established or growing business. I am interested in working with a company involved with government contracts as my experience in Control Account Management holds value for any business that is under government contract or planning to expand to government contracts.
