Part-Time Financial Controller

JTG, Inc. is seeking a seasoned Part-Time Controller to provide strategic financial oversight for our 100% employee-owned (ESOP) federal contracting firm. This is a high-level role for a financial professional with deep Deltek Costpoint expertise who thrives on technical accuracy and government-contract compliance. You will oversee the accounting function, manage our indirect rate structure, and keep our accounting practices DCAA-adequate - all on a flexible, part-time schedule.

Key Responsibilities:

• Deltek Costpoint Integrity: Maintain the integrity of our Deltek Costpoint system, including high-level configuration of projects and cost pools.
• Budgeting & Cash Forecasting: Lead creation, maintenance, and management of the company-wide annual budget, and integrate it with our 13-week cash flow forecast to align corporate goals with real-time liquidity.
• ICS Ownership: Personally manage the annual Incurred Cost Submission. Using existing templates, extract data, populate the ICE model, and defend the submission in the event of audit.
• Indirect Rate Management: Perform monthly true-ups of Fringe, Overhead, and G&A against budgeted targets and provisional billing rates, and provide the CEO with actionable insights on rate variances and profitability.
• Oversight & Review: Supervise a full-time Accounting Manager who handles daily AP/AR and payroll. Perform final month-end review and sign off on financial statements.
• Compliance Lead: Maintain DCAA-adequate accounting practices and serve as point of contact for government audit activity, ESOP valuation support, and banking compliance.

Specific Duties

• Review and approve monthly P&L, Balance Sheet, and Cash Flow statements.
• Architect and update the 13-week cash flow forecast, reconciling it with company-wide budget targets.
• Audit labor distributions to ensure proper classification (avoiding mischarges in holiday, PTO, or G&A).
• Analyze project-level gross margins (PSR reports) and alert leadership to underperforming contracts.
• Provide technical pricing support for federal cost proposals (RFP/RFQ) on an as-needed, separately scoped basis.

Qualifications:

• Deltek Mastery: Expert-level Deltek Costpoint proficiency is mandatory - pools, allocations, and budgeting structures, with minimal ramp.
• Pricing & Cost Volumes: Hands-on experience developing cost/price volumes for federal proposals (RFP/RFQ) - direct labor build-ups, basis-of-estimate (BOE) documentation, indirect and wrap-rate application, and price-to-win analysis - while maintaining cost realism and compliance with solicitation pricing instructions (Section L/M).
• Experience: 10+ years in GovCon accounting, with proven experience submitting the ICS, managing indirect rates, and building corporate budgets integrated with short-term cash forecasting.
• Education: Bachelor's Degree in Accounting/Finance required; CPA or MBA strongly preferred.
• Efficiency: A results-driven "doer" who can translate data into strategy quickly within a limited-hour format.
