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:
• $90,000 - $120,000 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.
