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.

• 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.

• 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.

• 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 Gov Con 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.
