She was elevated to the post after serving as VP and associate general counsel of Northrop’s mission systems business for nearly three years, providing guidance for the $10 billion subsidiary that offers advanced mission technologies for defense and intelligence customers.
Simpson said she will report to Kathy Warden, president and CEO of Northrop and an eight-time Wash100 awardee, and will work with a team of lawyers in her new capacity.
The executive joined Northrop in 2012 as VP and general counsel following a 17-year career with the legacy Raytheon company, where she was VP of legal, corporate transactions and governance.
Before that, Simpson was attorney-adviser at the U.S. International Trade Commission and associate in the securities department and international transactions practice group at Foley and Lardner.
