They use cloud-based accounting software and digital communication tools to collaborate with clients efficiently. This role offers flexibility while ensuring organizations maintain accurate financial records and comply with regulations.

What are some common challenges faced in remote accounting consulting roles?

Remote accounting consultants often encounter challenges related to communication with clients and team members across different time zones and digital platforms. Ensuring data security and maintaining client confidentiality while sharing sensitive financial documents online is another important consideration. Additionally, adapting to varying client processes or accounting systems requires flexibility and a proactive approach. However, developing strong organizational habits and leveraging secure, cloud-based tools can help mitigate these challenges and support effective remote work.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in remote accounting consulting, and why are they important?

To thrive in Remote Accounting Consulting, you should possess strong analytical skills, in-depth knowledge of accounting principles, and a relevant degree or CPA certification. Familiarity with accounting software such as QuickBooks, Xero, or SAP, and proficiency in cloud-based collaboration tools is typically required.

  • Training & development


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.

This is a remote position.
