Job description


Client Controller | Government Contracting (GovCon) | Outsourced Accounting

About the Role
We’re seeking a Client Controller to manage the full accounting lifecycle for a portfolio of clients, with a strong focus on Government Contracting (GovCon). This is a hands-on, client-facing role responsible for financial accuracy, reporting, and advisory support.
You’ll own client relationships end-to-end—delivering high-quality financials, ensuring compliance, and providing strategic insight. This role requires prior GovCon experience (FAR, DCAA, indirect rates) and is not designed for entry-level training in this area.
What You’ll Do

Client Leadership & Advisory
  • Serve as the primary accounting lead for multiple clients
  • Build strong relationships through proactive communication and reliable delivery
  • Lead regular meetings to review financials, trends, and planning needs
  • Advise on FAR compliance, indirect rates, and contract financials
  • Guide clients on DCAA expectations and audit readiness
Accounting Execution
  • Own and perform full-cycle accounting (AP/AR, payroll coordination, reconciliations, close)
  • Prepare accurate, timely financial statements and supporting schedules
  • Maintain clean, audit-ready books
  • Ensure compliance with GAAP and FAR Part 31
  • Track allowable vs. unallowable costs
Reporting & Analysis
  • Support budgeting, forecasting, and cash flow planning
  • Prepare and analyze indirect rate structures (overhead, G&A, fringe)
  • Assist with DCAA audits, incurred cost submissions, and rate reviews
  • Support contract-level reporting, funding tracking, and compliance reporting
Team Collaboration & Process Improvement
  • Collaborate with internal team members while owning final deliverables
  • Review work for accuracy and completeness
  • Contribute to process improvements and standardization
  • Strengthen GovCon-specific workflows aligned with compliance requirements
Deadline Management
  • Manage multiple client timelines and deliverables independently
  • Consistently meet deadlines across all accounts
  • Track and deliver on GovCon-specific deadlines (audits, rate submissions, reporting)

Qualifications
  • Proven experience in GovCon accounting (FAR, DCAA, indirect rates)
  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field
  • 5+ years of progressive accounting experience (full cycle required)
  • Background in a client-facing or outsourced accounting environment preferred
  • Strong knowledge of GAAP, internal controls, and cost accounting
  • Experience with systems such as PROCAS, Unanet, or similar tools is a plus
  • Excellent communication, organization, and time management skills
  • Ability to manage multiple clients with accuracy and professionalism

Why Join Us?
  • Direct client impact and ownership
  • Exposure to a diverse range of GovCon clients and complex challenges
  • Fully remote work environment
  • Opportunity to build trusted client relationships
  • Collaborative team culture focused on accountability, service, and professional growth

Compensation:
• $85,000 - $110,000 annually, depending on experience and qualifications. 
If you are a hands-on accounting professional with GovCon expertise who enjoys working directly with clients and taking ownership of results, we encourage you to apply.
