Orgro is a mission-driven organization in our delivery of high-quality engineering outcomes for our Defense and Federal contracts by combining disciplined processes with a culture of respect and accountability that helps our teams thrive while meeting complex program needs.

We are currently seeking a Government Contracts Specialist to support the core Gov Con back-office execution across post-award contract administration, billing readiness/invoicing, monthly close support, and indirect rate monitoring. The ideal candidate is hands-on and process-driven and comfortable working in Unanet, Deltek Costpoint, and Net Suite and can keep contract and financial data accurate so invoices, reporting, and close activities run cleanly and on time.

• Contracts Administration (Post-Award):
  Review and process contract actions such as modifications, de-obligations, and rate updates, ensuring updates are captured correctly in the system of record before invoicing.
• Maintain contract status trackers and support documentation for ongoing contract management and closeout organization.
• Billing Readiness & Invoicing Support:
  Execute billing readiness checks prior to invoicing (e.g., timecards are current/approved, AP is updated, mods are entered, travel/ODCs are extracted when applicable).
• Support the timekeeping-to-invoicing workflow, including coordination of timecard follow-ups and extraction steps used to initiate invoicing.
• Assist with invoice preparation packages and ensure supporting documentation is organized and audit-ready.
• Indirect Rate Support:
  Assist with indirect rate monitoring by supporting periodic reporting inputs, tracking trends/variances, and escalating anomalies as needed.
• Support related annual tasks such as provisional billing rates and incurred cost submission support, as assigned.
• Monthly Close & Recurring Reporting:
  Support month-end close activities by coordinating inputs, maintaining organized backup, and supporting reconciliation/reporting artifacts. Support recurring reporting deliverables on a weekly/bi-monthly/month-end cadence.
• Systems & Tools:
  Unanet (timekeeping, billing workflows, invoicing support);
  Deltek Costpoint (ERP/project accounting; Gov Con-focused ERP exposure preferred);
  Net Suite (ERP/accounting operations);
  Excel (trackers, reconciliations, invoice support packages).

• 0–2 years of experience (including internships) in project finance, Gov Con billing, contracts support, or operations finance.
• Working proficiency in Unanet, Costpoint, and Net Suite (strong in at least one; able to ramp quickly across the others).
• Strong attention to detail and comfort with checklist-based execution, documentation, and reconciliation support.
• Strong Excel skills and clear written communication (able to summarize what changed and what you updated).

• Exposure to Gov Con invoicing and post-award contract workflows (mods, billing readiness, closeout support).
• Familiarity with indirect rate concepts (Fringe/OH/G&A) and variance awareness.

• You can independently run the billing readiness flow: time approved, AP updated, mods entered, travel/ODCs extracted, invoice package ready.
• Indirect rate monitoring inputs are kept current and issues are flagged early with concise notes.
• Contract actions are reflected accurately in systems with minimal rework prior to invoicing.

This is a hybrid position in which you must be able to commute to the Washington DC area to be onsite when needed.
