ABOUT SARA POOLEY
With over 16 years of experience in the defense and aerospace industry, I specialize in driving growth, collaboration, and mission success across complex programs and organizational structures. I currently serve as a Program Manager at Pinnacle Solutions - an Akima Company, leading training and simulation development programs. Previously, I was a Business Development Lead at L3Harris Technologies, advancing strategic initiatives that support the U.S. Navy’s munitions and propulsion portfolio, and held multiple leadership roles at Northrop Grumman, including Program Manager and Training Manager, where I led cross-functional teams supporting the Global Hawk Program and other high-value contracts exceeding $50M. My experience spans program sustainment, capture management, proposal development, and training operations—supported by a proven record of exceeding performance and return-on-sales targets.I’m a certified PMP with dual master’s degrees in Business Administration and Educational & Instructional Technology, combining strategic vision with a strong foundation in process efficiency and team development. My leadership approach centers on fostering collaboration, aligning business objectives with customer needs, and delivering measurable results that drive long-term organizational impact.
