Job Description:

The Senior Accountant supports compliant, audit-ready accounting operations for a defense-focused government contractor. The role owns core month-end close activities, supports government contract accounting requirements, and leverages Unanet to maintain accurate project financials and reporting. This position is hands-on and collaborative with contracts, programs, and operations.

Job Responsibility:

  • Own month-end close activities: journal entries, accruals, reconciliations, and variance analysis (GAAP)
  • Support DCAA-ready practices: transaction support, consistent documentation, and internal controls
  • Maintain and analyze indirect rate structures (Fringe, Overhead, G&A)
  • support forecasting and timely adjustments
  • Support compliant cost accounting: segregation of allowable/unallowable and direct/indirect costs per FAR Part 31
  • Leverage Unanet for project accounting, labor distribution support, cost corrections, and reporting
  • Partner with program and contracts staff to ensure accurate project setup, charging guidance, and cost visibility
  • Support billing and project financial reporting (T&M, cost-type, fixed-price support as applicable to the portfolio)
  • Contribute to SOPs, close checklists, and continuous improvement for speed, accuracy, and auditability
  • Mentor junior accounting staff
  • provide review feedback and training as the team scales

Requirements:

  • 5–10+ years of progressive accounting experience
  • government contracting experience strongly preferred
  • BS in Accounting/Finance or related discipline
  • Strong experience in Unanet
  • Demonstrated exposure to DCAA/DCMA audit support or compliance-oriented accounting environments
  • Working knowledge of FAR Part 31 cost principles (allowability, allocability, reasonableness)
  • Strong GAAP fundamentals and proven month-end close ownership
  • Hands-on Unanet experience (timekeeping/project accounting/reporting)
  • Advanced Excel skills (pivot tables, lookups, structured reconciliation workpapers)
  • Strong written and verbal communication
  • ability to explain financial results to non-finance stakeholders

Nice to have:

  • Experience supporting incurred cost / ICE model preparation, provisional billing rates, or indirect rate proposals
  • Experience with job-costing, WIP/URA concepts, and government billing support workflows
  • Prior experience mentoring or supervising staff
  • readiness to step into team leadership
  • Current CPA license is a plus
What we offer:
  • Up to 15% annual bonus contingent upon corporate goals and performance
  • Comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, vision, and retirement plans
  • Paid time off, holidays, and professional development support
  • Opportunities for growth within a government contracting environment
  • Relocation assistance is available for this role
