POSITION SUMMARY

Simmonds Precision Products, a TransDigm company, designs and manufactures fuel gauging, sensing, and structural health monitoring systems for military and commercial aircraft. The Government Accounting Manager owns the business's government contract compliance program and serves as the primary finance point of contact for the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA), and the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA). The role ensures that cost accounting practices, indirect rates, billing, and pricing support comply with the FAR, DFARS, and Cost Accounting Standards (CAS), while protecting margin and supporting the business's value-based operating model.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Compliance & Cost Accounting

  • Maintain compliance with FAR Part 31 cost principles, DFARS, and applicable CAS requirements; monitor regulatory changes and assess their impact on the business.
  • Own the CAS Disclosure Statement and the evaluation of cost accounting practice changes, including general dollar magnitude (GDM) impact analyses.
  • Develop and maintain indirect rate structures (fringe, overhead, material handling, G&A) and the allowable/unallowable cost segregation in the general ledger.
  • Support the integrity of the six DFARS business systems as they apply to Simmonds, with particular focus on the accounting, and estimating.

Rates, Submissions & Audits

  • Prepare the annual Incurred Cost Submission (ICS) and support rate settlement through closeout.
  • Develop forward pricing rate proposals and provisional billing rates; monitor actual vs. forecast rates monthly and recommend adjustments.
  • Act as liaison for DCAA, DCMA, and prime contractor audits: coordinate document requests, prepare responses, manage audit findings and corrective actions.
  • Maintain an audit-ready environment with documented policies, procedures, and internal controls.

Pricing, Billing & Contract Support

  • Partner with Programs and Pricing on cost build-ups, certified cost or pricing data (TINA) compliance, commerciality determinations, and proposal reviews.
  • Oversee government billing, including progress payments, performance-based payments, and WAWF/PIEE invoicing.
  • Support contract closeout, quick-closeout rate requests, and reconciliation of contract funding.
  • Partner with IT and Operations to ensure SyteLine (Infor CloudSuite Industrial) cost, timekeeping, and job accounting configuration supports compliant cost collection.
  • Train program managers, operations staff, and timekeeping users on charging practices, unallowable costs, and compliance obligations.

QUALIFICATIONS

Required

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
  • 7+ years of government contract accounting experience, including 2+ years in a lead or supervisory capacity, preferably in aerospace and defense manufacturing.
  • Working knowledge of FAR, DFARS, CAS, and TINA, with direct experience preparing incurred cost submissions and indirect rate proposals.
  • Demonstrated experience managing DCAA and/or DCMA audits and responding to findings.
  • Strong ERP and Excel skills; experience with job/project costing in a manufacturing ERP.
  • Must be a U.S. person as defined by ITAR (22 CFR 120.62) due to access to export-controlled information.

Preferred

  • CPA, CMA, or CGFM certification.
  • Experience with Infor SyteLine / CloudSuite Industrial or a comparable manufacturing ERP.
  • Experience in a public-company or private-equity-style environment with a strong focus on cash, margin, and accountability.
  • Familiarity with commercial item determinations and pricing on sole-source spare parts.

KEY RELATIONSHIPS

Internal: VP of Finance, Controller, Contracts and Pricing, Program Management, Operations, Supply Chain, Human Resources, IT, and TransDigm corporate finance. External: DCAA, DCMA, prime contractor auditors and pricing teams, and outside advisors.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
