Applicants must have excellent interpersonal skills, strong written and oral communications skills, and a focus on customer service. Knowledge of Generally Accepted Government Auditing Standards, the Federal Acquisition Regulation, and Cost Accounting Standards is required, as is a minimum of two years direct experience in federal government contract auditing (, service with the Defense Contract Audit Agency). Applicants with advanced degrees or who possess professional certifications such as Certified Public Accountants are especially encouraged to apply. Opportunities for travel are available.
Candidates will be evaluated on their ability to: 1) understand and assess complex contract audit issues; 2) analyze data and make audit recommendations; 3) work productively, with minimal supervision, either independently or in a team environment; and 4) demonstrate knowledge of accounting and auditing concepts, principles, and techniques.
