About the Role
Montcure, LLC is hiring a Financial Management Audit Support Manager to manage audit support workstreams for a U.S. Navy / DoW financial management organization.

- Translate IPA test plans, sample selections, and test attributes into team work plans, KSD request lists, and support packages.

- Oversee population preparation and completeness checks, including reconciliation of populations to the Trial Balance and financial statement line items.
- Oversee Procure to Pay and Order to Cash transaction support, and beginning balance testing support, including alternative procedures where original documentation is limited.
- Review account and subledger-to-general ledger reconciliations and variance research, and resolve open items with Government counterparts.
- Direct data analytics that identify anomalies, duplicates, aged items, and unsupported transactions, and explain their impact on account balances.
- Analyze exceptions and their root causes, and help the Government draft Notice of Finding and Recommendation (NFR) responses and corrective action plans (CAPs).
- Coordinate with Government points of contact at the GS-13 to GS-15 level, and prepare status briefings for leadership.
- Supervise, mentor, and review the work of Seniors and analysts, and maintain desk guides, templates, and SOPs.
