Our client, a growing and well-positioned organization, is seeking a Senior Manager, Program Finance - Government to take ownership of pricing strategy and program financial performance across complex government programs. This is a high-impact, highly visible role with direct access to executive leadership and real influence on how the business prices, competes, and wins.


This opportunity is ideal for someone who wants to move beyond execution into true strategic ownership— balancing pricing, risk, and profitability while shaping decisions that directly impact growth and long-term success.


Key Responsibilities:

  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Finance, Contracts, Legal, Engineering, and Program Management
  • Build, lead, and develop a high-performing pricing and compliance team
  • Lead government pricing strategy across cost-type, fixed-price, and incentive contracts
  • Own proposal pricing, cost models, and financial analysis for bids and recompetes
  • Develop and manage indirect rate structures and forward pricing models
  • Partner with leadership on bid/no-bid decisions and overall win strategy
  • Lead or support government pricing negotiations and audit interactions
  • Ensure compliance with FAR, DFARS, CAS, and TINA requirements
  • Serve as key interface with DCAA and DCMA on pricing and cost matters
  • Analyze program financials to assess cost competitiveness, margin risk, and assumptions
  • Enhance pricing models, tools, and processes to improve decision-making
  • Provide executive-level insight into pricing strategy, financial risk, and contract structures

Required Qualifications & Experience:

  • 7+ years in gov't pricing / cost / program finance
  • FAR / DFARS / CAS / TINA fluency
  • Experience owning proposal pricing + cost strategy
  • Exposure to DCAA / DCMA
  • Strong modeling + business judgment
  • Ability to influence leadership + drive decisions


Nice to Have:

  • MBA / CPA
  • Exposure to FMS / international programs
  • Experience building pricing tools or processes


Why You’ll Love This Role / Company:

  • Own pricing strategy– not just execution
  • Direct access to executive leadership + real decision influence
  • Opportunity to build and elevate the function– not just maintain
  • Broader scope vs. large companies– see the full business impact
  • High-visibility role tied to growth, margin, and win strategy
  • Work on complex, mission-critical programs with real stakes
  • Join a stable, well-established company with strong reputation and long-term growth trajectory
