The Red Gate Group is seeking a highly experienced Compliance Assessment Program Lead to oversee and manage a team of subject matter experts supporting the Naval Treaty Implementation Program (NTIP)—a critical initiative under the Department of the Navy’s Strategic Systems Programs (SSP). This leadership role is at the forefront of ensuring U.S. Navy and Marine Corps programs comply with international arms control treaties and nonproliferation agreements that are essential to U.S. national security and global stability.

As Program Lead, you will direct a diverse team of 7–10 arms control, international law, and national security professionals and serve as the primary architect and quality controller for the Compliance Assessment Program (CAP). You’ll shape assessments that directly inform programmatic decisions across the Navy’s acquisition lifecycle, ensuring compliance with high-stakes agreements such as the Chemical Weapons Convention, Biological Weapons Convention, Open Skies Treaty, and other classified/non-classified obligations. You will also interface directly with Navy leadership, legal authorities, program managers, and interagency partners—crafting high-level correspondence, driving policy adherence, and maintaining the accuracy and integrity of the Navy’s internal CAP database.

This is a unique opportunity to apply your arms control, international policy, and defense program expertise in a mission-critical setting with broad institutional impact.

Key Responsibilities:

+ Lead the Compliance Assessment Program (CAP), overseeing up to 500 annual assessments of Navy/Marine Corps programs for treaty compliance

+ Manage a team of multidisciplinary experts and ensure the delivery of technically sound and legally defensible Arms Control Compliance Assessments (ACCAs)

+ Interface with Navy program offices, legal reviewers, and the Naval Arms Control Review Board to shepherd programs through compliance evaluations

+ Provide policy-informed analysis based on arms control treaties, U.S. and DoD policy, acquisition documentation, testing data, and interagency guidance

+ Maintain and manage NTIP’s classified/unclassified NCAP database as a workflow engine and historical archive of compliance reviews

+ Track emerging and ongoing Navy programs to anticipate CAP support requirements across the acquisition lifecycle

+ Produce high-quality correspondence, briefings, memoranda, and reports ready for Flag Officer or SES signature

+ Represent NTIP in high-level meetings and working groups; lead preparation of technical documentation and support products

+ Monitor Navy and Marine Corps systems for changes that may affect treaty implementation or trigger new assessments

+ Bachelor’s degree required; Master’s degree strongly preferred in international relations, national security, public policy, international law, or related fields

+ 10+ years of professional experience in arms control, treaty compliance, international policy, or national security strategy

+ Demonstrated understanding of DoD acquisition, program planning, and budgeting cycles

+ Proven ability to synthesize technical, legal, and policy information into actionable, well-argued compliance assessments

+ Strong leadership, team management, and communication skills

+ Experience developing and managing correspondence and documentation for senior leadership within DoD or equivalent organizations

+ Familiarity with U.S. Government arms control agreements, including emerging treaty texts and nonproliferation initiatives

+ Active SECRET clearance required; TS/SCI preferred
