JOB OVERVIEW

CPA / Financial Advisor

Part-Time (10–20 hrs/mo) | Remote — Philippines-Based | CPA Required | Government Contracting Experience Strongly Preferred


About You --------------------

You're not a bookkeeper who got promoted. You're a credentialed financial professional who understands the unique complexity of U.S. government contracting — and you're comfortable advising a CEO who moves fast and expects you to keep up.

You've reviewed sets of books and immediately known what's right, what's off, and what's a risk. You understand indirect rates, FAR cost principles, and what it takes to survive a DCAA audit. You can build a budget for a government proposal, review a month-end close, and explain cash flow implications to an executive in plain language — all in the same engagement.

You bring the kind of financial judgment that a costly U.S. CPA would provide — and you're available, responsive, and invested in the client's long-term success. If that's you, we'd like to talk.


About Performance Excellence Partners --------------------

Performance Excellence Partners (PEP) is a multimillion-dollar, woman-owned government contracting agency serving federal clients across the United States. CEO Rachel Ramirez leads a growing organization that also includes a real estate portfolio (multiple LLCs), a coaching and leadership development practice, and nonprofit work. The books are clean. The team is capable. What's needed is a trusted financial advisor who can provide oversight, strategic counsel, and the expertise to take PEP's financial operations to the next level.


About the Role --------------------

This is a fractional CPA/Financial Advisor engagement — approximately 10–20 hours per month, with potential for more during proposal season, audit periods, or major financial decisions.

You will work alongside PEP's Senior Bookkeeper (who handles day-to-day operations) and report directly to Rachel. Your job is to review, advise, and protect — not to process transactions or manage the books yourself.

Once the financial systems are well-established and the bookkeeper is running smoothly, Rachel's expectation is that this engagement may settle to approximately 2–3 hours of review and advisory per month — the mark of a highly efficient, well-structured financial operation.

What You'll Do ---------------------------------

Monthly Oversight

Review the bookkeeper's monthly close package — entries, reconciliations, and financial reports
Verify job costing and contract billing accuracy (Book to Bill)
Identify errors, misclassifications, or compliance risks and provide corrective guidance
Conduct a monthly advisory meeting with Rachel — financial review, insights, and recommendations

Strategic Financial Advisory

Develop and maintain annual operating budget and multi-entity financial plan
Support government proposal budget development — ensure bids are sound, competitive, and compliant
Update provisional billing rates and forward pricing rate proposals as needed
Scenario modeling for major financial decisions (new contracts, headcount, acquisitions)
Advise on tax strategy across PEP and all affiliated entities

Compliance & Audit Readiness

Design and maintain internal controls appropriate for a FAR-governed government contractor
Ensure books are structured and documented to withstand DCAA scrutiny
Review corporate certification financial packages for accuracy and compliance
Oversee year-end financial package delivery to tax accountant

Loans, Applications & Personal Financial Support

Review and validate financial data for business loans and government applications
Prepare or review personal wealth statements for Rachel
Support financial sections of RFPs, RFIs, and capability statements
Advise on personal financial matters as they relate to Rachel's business decisions


A Day in the Life --------------------

It's the first week of the month. You log in, review the bookkeeper's close package for the prior month, and make notes on two entries that need reclassification and one contract invoice where the billed amount doesn't align with the task order ceiling.

You prepare a brief review memo — three findings, one of which is a compliance risk, two of which are clean-up items — and send it to the bookkeeper with clear guidance. Then you join a 90-minute call with Rachel to review the month's financials, discuss Q3 cash flow, and walk through a preliminary budget for an upcoming federal proposal.

Rachel has a question about whether she should structure a new property acquisition under an existing LLC or create a new one. You walk her through the tax implications and liability considerations in plain language and give her a clear recommendation. That's the whole month — efficient, high-value, and exactly what Rachel needs.


What We're Looking For --------------------

Philippine CPA license required; U.S. CPA or equivalent credential a significant differentiator
Minimum 7 years of accounting experience, with meaningful government contracting exposure
Direct knowledge of FAR cost principles and DCAA audit requirements
Experience with indirect rate structure, provisional billing rates, and forward pricing
Multi-entity accounting experience — real estate LLCs a strong advantage
Prior experience advising U.S.-based clients, ideally in a fractional or outsourced capacity
QuickBooks proficiency (Desktop and Online) — must be able to review and navigate the books
Excellent English communication — can explain complex financial matters clearly to a non-finance audience
Proactive, confident advisor — not a passive reporter


Schedule & Compensation --------------------

Part-time fractional engagement: estimated 10–20 hours per month
Flexible scheduling with availability for a recurring monthly review call (U.S. Pacific Time)
Compensation: $18–$25 USD/hour based on credentials and experience
Paid monthly via Wise or direct bank transfer
Potential to expand engagement scope as PEP grows
