The TMO (Transformation Management Office) Standards & Portfolio Operations Lead supports the Enterprise Transformation Office (ETO) by establishing and operationalizing enterprise-wide standards for indirect transformation initiatives—ensuring a common language, consistent lifecycle/stage gates, milestone definitions, and standardized reporting—while also running the operational governance cadence (forums, logs, compliance tracking, and executive-ready packs) that drives decision velocity, accountability, and repeatable execution across the enterprise. Primary Responsibilities Own and maintain enterprise TMO standards for indirect initiatives: lifecycle/stage gates, required artifacts, milestone library, and standard status language (RAG = Red/Amber/Green; RAID = Risks/Assumptions/Issues/Dependencies), cadence expectations, and escalation triggers. Operate standards governance: version control, change control, and a documented, time-boxed waiver/exception process. Run the portfolio governance cadence: agendas, pre-reads, decision capture, minutes/follow-ups; maintain action, decision, and RAID logs and drive closure. Drive reporting compliance and portfolio hygiene: track completeness/timeliness, follow up with owners, and publish compliance visibility. Produce executive-ready portfolio packs using standard templates (health, milestones, top risks/blockers, decisions required). Lead adoption and enablement: templates, job aids/FAQs, onboarding/office hours, and “what changed” communications. Identify recurring friction and implement continuous improvements to simplify standards and reduce reporting burden. Basic Qualifications Bachelor’s degree with 8–12 years of relevant experience (or Master’s with 6–10 years, or PhD with 3–7 years), or equivalent combination of education and experience. Demonstrated experience designing and operationalizing enterprise standards (lifecycle, milestones, templates, governance rules) across multiple organizations. Demonstrated experience running a portfolio governance cadence (logs, compliance, executive pack production, decision capture). Strong written/verbal communication skills; able to communicate with executive leadership and influence outcomes across functions. Preferred Qualifications Experience in a Transformation Office / Portfolio Governance / Operating Model stand-up. Secret Clearance Experience building and maintaining standardized KPI/metric dictionaries and reporting governance (in partnership with Finance/Performance teams). Familiarity with M365 collaboration tooling (Teams/SharePoint) and governance automation concepts (e.g., forms/workflows). Lean / process improvement background (e.g., standard work, controls, continuous improvement). If you're looking for comfort, keep scrolling. At Leidos, we outthink, outbuild, and outpace the status quo — because the mission demands it. We're not hiring followers. We're recruiting the ones who disrupt, provoke, and refuse to fail. Step 10 is ancient history. We're already at step 30 — and moving faster than anyone else dares. Original Posting: March 4, 2026 For U.S. Positions: While subject to change based on business needs, Leidos reasonably anticipates that this job requisition will remain open for at least 3 days with an anticipated close date of no earlier than 3 days after the original posting date as listed above.
