Pricing Analyst

As a Pricing Analyst on our Corporate Finance team, you'll bring together two closely connected parts of our business: helping win new work by supporting proposal pricing, and helping deliver on our current commitments by managing program-level finances across a portfolio of federally funded contracts and grants.

You'll partner directly with Project Directors and Program/Contract Managers on budgeting and forecasting, and you'll provide matrixed support to Altarum's Corporate Program Management Office (PMO) — contributing cross-program financial analysis, dashboards, and status reporting. If you're a finance professional with a few years of experience looking to build deep expertise in government contract and nonprofit program finance, this role offers a strong foundation within a mission-driven organization.

Pricing Support

• Support the development of cost proposals and pricing volumes for new business and recompete opportunities, including basis-of-estimate (BOE) documentation.
• Help build labor rate, escalation, and indirect rate build-ups for proposal pricing models, working closely with the Pricing and Contracts teams.
• Prepare cost realism and competitive pricing analyses to support solicitation responses.
• Coordinate with Business Development, Contracts, and Program teams to align pricing assumptions with program budgets and staffing plans.

Program Finance

• Support monthly financial reviews for your assigned programs and contracts, tracking actual costs against approved budgets and funding ceilings.
• Prepare and maintain program budgets, spend plans, and cost forecasts (EAC/ETC) in coordination with Project Directors.
• Analyze budget-to-actual variances and prepare variance narratives and corrective-action recommendations for management review.
• Track incurred costs, funding modifications, subcontractor spending, and contract ceiling balances.
• Support period-end and program closeout activities, including final financial reporting for completing programs.

Matrixed Support to the Corporate PMO

• Serve as a financial liaison to Altarum's Corporate PMO, supplying program financial data for portfolio-level status reports, dashboards, and executive reviews.
• Help consolidate program-level financial metrics — such as burn rate, EAC/ETC, and funding utilization — into standardized PMO reporting templates.
• Support cross-program analysis to flag financial risks, funding gaps, or staffing/budget misalignments for PMO and finance leadership.
• Participate in Integrated Program Reviews (IPRs) and program status meetings, contributing financial insight alongside Project Directors.
• Help maintain consistency between program financial systems (e.g., Deltek Costpoint) and PMO reporting tools.

This role is a chance to grow as a finance professional at the intersection of pricing strategy and program delivery, building skills that are valued across government contracting and nonprofit finance alike. You'll see a direct line between your work and Altarum's mission: by keeping our programs' finances sound, you help free our program teams to focus fully on improving health for the populations who need it most. You'll also gain broad exposure across the organization — partnering with Project Directors, Program/Contract Managers, Business Development, Contracts, and our Corporate PMO — building a well-rounded view of how a mission-driven government contractor operates.
