• Lead annual budget development and contribute to multi-year financial planning, including the Annual Operating Plan (AOP).
• Prepare and maintain monthly and quarterly financial reports, dashboards, and program performance metrics for management.
• Manage invoicing, revenue recognition, and contract-by-contract funding status tracking.
• Conduct variance analysis and identify trends, risks, and over/underruns early-recommending corrective actions before they become problems.

Compliance, Controls & Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Ensure all expenses are properly categorized and compliant with accounting standards, internal policies, FAR/DFARS, and contractual requirements.
• Support audits, reconciliations, and documentation reviews.
• Collaborate with Program Managers, Contracts, Subcontracts, and internal/external stakeholders to ensure accurate financial management across the program lifecycle.
• Drive continuous improvement in financial processes and reporting accuracy.

• Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Business, or a related field; 9+ years of experience may be considered in lieu of degree.
• 5+ years of experience in program or project financial management, with demonstrated ability to manage multiple programs simultaneously.
• Experience with EAC/ETC development and cost performance reporting in a government contracting environment.
• Experience working with FFP, T&M, and CPFF contract types.
• Advanced Excel skills, including pivot tables, lookups, financial modeling, and complex formulas.
• Strong analytical and communication skills-able to present financial data clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Ability to manage competing priorities and meet recurring deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
• Active Top Secret clearance required.
• US. Citizenship required.

Preferred Qualifications
