Overview:

Axlerator is hiring a Finance & Accounting Associate to play a key role in supporting finance operations and operational reporting across a diverse portfolio of entities. The ideal candidate will be comfortable navigating the distinct accounting, compliance, and reporting requirements of each entity type — including GAAP-based consolidated reporting, and cost accounting standards.

This position is designed for an accounting and finance professional who is ready to take on complex, multi-entity responsibilities, and contribute to financial frameworks that drive operational excellence and support portfolio management initiatives. This is a unique opportunity to build and shape a finance and accounting structure with a new mission and perspective — one that is actively investing in and operating multiple businesses across government contracting and public markets. This role requires the ability to work out of Tysons, VA five days a week.

Key Responsibilities

• Execute monthly, quarterly, and year-end close processes across all entities in accordance with U.S. GAAP, including consolidated financial statements and intercompany eliminations.

• Perform complex account reconciliations and variance analysis across the consolidated group and at the individual entity level.

• Manage cost accounting and project-based reporting, cost tracking, invoicing, and government-required reporting and multi-entity accounting and group-level reporting.

• Support budgeting, multi-year forecasting, and rolling cash flow projections at the entity and consolidated group level, with KPI dashboards and variance reporting.

• Develop and implement frameworks for AI adoption and automation within finance operations, leveraging tools such as Claude, ChatGPT, Power BI, and Tableau to modernize workflows.

• Demonstrated experience leveraging AI tools and advanced Excel capabilities — including Power Query, Power Pivot, and automated workflows — to streamline financial processes, reduce manual effort, and improve reporting efficiency.

• Enhance and maintain accounting policies and internal controls ensuring compliance with U.S. GAAP, and government contracting standards; support external audits inquiries.

• Mentor and develop Junior Associate-level team members while collaborating cross-functionally with operations, finance, and executive leadership to build scalable financial infrastructure.
