PBG delivers mission-focused solutions that eliminate inefficiency and power transformation for federal agencies requiring agility, security, and impact.
Position Overview
PBG is seeking a mid-level Portfolio Coordinator with an Active Secret security clearance to support a federal government client's IT portfolio management, governance, and operational planning initiatives. This role will work closely with government leadership, technical teams, and business stakeholders to improve portfolio visibility, strengthen governance processes, and support data-driven decision-making.
The ideal candidate brings a strong background in federal IT portfolio management, Program Management Office (PMO) operations, performance reporting, and stakeholder coordination.

This position follows a hybrid schedule, requiring onsite work three days per week in Washington, D.C. (Foggy Bottom).
Key Responsibilities
- Support day-to-day IT portfolio management activities, including governance coordination, demand management, operational planning, and portfolio execution.
- Analyze portfolio performance, financial data, acquisition activities, operational metrics, risks, and dependencies to identify trends and recommend improvements.
- Track portfolio initiatives, project milestones, performance objectives, and key results (OKRs) to ensure alignment with organizational priorities.
- Develop and maintain portfolio governance frameworks, standard operating procedures (SOPs), workflows, documentation, and knowledge repositories.
- Support continuous improvement initiatives designed to enhance portfolio management processes, reporting capabilities, and operational efficiency.
- Prepare executive-level briefings, dashboards, portfolio assessments, status reports, and decision-support materials for government leadership.
- Translate complex technical, financial, and operational information into clear, actionable insights and recommendations.
- Coordinate responses to leadership inquiries, audits, portfolio reviews, data calls, and other high-priority reporting requirements.
- Support senior government officials in preparing for executive meetings, governance boards, and strategic planning discussions.
- Monitor and report on portfolio health, resource utilization, operational performance, and emerging risks.
- Facilitate portfolio governance meetings, working sessions, stakeholder discussions, and cross-functional coordination activities.
- Collaborate with government personnel, technical teams, contractors, and business stakeholders to support portfolio objectives.
- Identify operational challenges, track action items, and coordinate resolution of portfolio-level issues and dependencies.
- Support federal IT compliance reporting, including tracking FISMA boundaries, Authority to Operate (ATO) status, and related cybersecurity governance activities.
- Assist with the implementation and adoption of portfolio management tools, reporting dashboards, automation solutions, and low-code/no-code technologies.
Required Qualifications

- Bachelor's degree and at least 4 years of relevant professional experience, or 8+ years of relevant experience in lieu of a degree.
- Experience supporting one or more of the following:
