About the Role
Heartland Consulting is hiring a Senior Operations Research Analyst to sit on-site with Commander, Submarine Group Two (COMSUBGRU TWO) in its role as Theater Undersea Warfare Commander (TUSWC) for U.S. Second Fleet. The analyst is the command's embedded OA/OR capability - the person who finds where analysis can improve TUSWC planning, builds the methods, trains the staff to use them, and leaves behind documented processes the watch floor can run without the contractor in the room.
This is not a remote study contract and not a generic "data analyst" seat. You will work in a classified Navy staff environment, handle operational data, brief seniors (including flag-level audiences), and institutionalize operations-analysis methods for maritime homeland defense and theater undersea warfare.
Heartland is the incumbent on this effort. The current analyst is in the seat today. We are recruiting the successor now so the command has a clean, qualified handoff and no gap in on-site support.
What You Will Do
Required Qualifications
These are the contract minimums. Candidates who do not meet them cannot be placed on this task.
Desired Qualifications
Work Environment
Compensation and Benefits
Final Compensation is based on Education and Experience.
Compensation is competitive for a TS/SCI, on-site Navy warfighting OR seat in Hampton Roads and is commensurate with education, clearance, and directly relevant experience. Heartland typically provides:
Final offer depends on qualifications, clearance currency, and start-date availability. Target start is aligned to contract award / 29 September 2026, with an earlier overlap preferred so the outgoing analyst can conduct a structured turnover.
How to Apply
Apply HERE to this job posting, or
Email a résumé (PDF) and a one-page letter that maps your education and ten-year Navy-warfighting OR experience to the required skill list above. State clearance level, investigation date or last PR date if known, and earliest start date.
