Budget and Financial Analyst, Senior

The Opportunity:

The right mixture of great ideas and funding can create change. In a complex organization, allocating funding to where it can be most effective can be challenging. That's why we need you, a financial analyst who can learn to navigate the requirements, policies, and regulations that govern funding to make sure critical efforts aligned to Research, Development, Test and Evaluation (RDT&E), and other Research and Development (R&D) related analytical services are appropriately resourced to achieve our client's mission requirements and make the greatest impact supporting National Security.

As a financial analyst on our team, you'll study the creation of a financial management strategy to help enhance the ability of Industrial Base Policy (IBP) to strengthen and maintain a Defense Industrial Base (DIB) that is able to meet warfighters' needs. You'll help the team to develop cost models and conduct budget analysis to inform solution development or analysis of alternatives.

You'll assist a team using laws, regulations, and policies to help the client develop well-formed requirements. Once the funding is in place, you'll make sure the funding is used efficiently through consistent tracking and communication with project and government leadership. This is your chance to establish skills supporting key Department of Defense initiatives while taking the opportunity to gain financial analysis experience.
