We continuously strive to improve our skills and provide educational opportunities for our staff while holding ourselves to a high standard of excellence, integrity, and accountability. 

We are seeking a Contract Administrator with an accounting background and mid-level experience to join our team. The ideal candidate should have a working knowledge of GAAP and FAR-compliant financial and project accounting and be extremely detail-oriented, responsive, and a clear communicator.

As a Contract Administrator, you will be responsible for ensuring smooth and compliant implementation and administrative management of various types of contracts (time and materials, firm fixed price, etc.). You will collaborate with and support Skeo work managers and experienced contract managers and/or work independently, depending on the contract or task. Some examples of contract administration tasks that you will perform regularly include: tracking multiple details and deadlines across and within contracts, such as period of performance, client deliverable deadlines, and internal reporting and accounting; assisting with preparing and submitting cost estimates, budgets, and invoices catered to varying contract types; tracking and supporting subcontractor tasking and invoicing; and responding to various quick-turnaround requests for information by Skeo work managers and external clients.  

You will also regularly support or manage various corporate-level accounting and administrative tasks. Some examples include: supporting external audit responses; performing internal and external reporting, such as compiling and reviewing materials for incurred cost submissions, internal management reports tied to revenue projection and staff utilization, and other financial requests; conducting detailed account reviews and reconciliations to ensure transactions are accurate, appropriate, and well-documented; developing reports to monitor pricing and indirect rates; and conducting research to understand various financial or compliance issues. 

Skeo offers a competitive salary, full benefits, and a flexible, supportive work environment. The salary range for this position is $65,000 to $85,000, commensurate with experience. This position may be performed remotely, but preference will be given to qualified applicants who are able to work in our Charlottesville, Virginia office on a full-time or hybrid basis. Applicants must be available during Skeo's regular business hours (9 AM to 5 PM Eastern). You will participate in regular, paid training on GAAP, FAR and/or contract administration topics to ensure consistency with government contracting best practices. 

Required qualifications include an undergraduate degree in accounting or a directly related field, at least five years of relevant experience, and a demonstrated ability to track, document and be responsible for accounting and compliance details. Preferred qualifications include experience working with a company that supports a wide range of contracts, especially fixed price and time and materials, experience with Deltek and JAMIS, and experience supporting federal, state, or local governments or clients. 

Skeo promotes a healthy work-life balance and expects all staff to reflect Skeo's operating principles: dignity, respect, compassion, integrity, and accountability. Applicants should be able to multi-task, be meticulous with details, collaborate well with teams, be responsive, maintain a positive attitude, and have excellent communication skills.
