About the role

An aerospace/defense manufacturer is seeking a Program Cost Analyst to support program and manufacturing costs, contribute to fiscal forecasts, and help connect production-floor cost data to program-level financial reporting.

• Prepare Estimate at Completion (EAC) inputs and supporting analysis; perform monthly variance analysis and support earned value reporting where applicable
• Support labor, overhead, and burden cost rate maintenance; contribute to personnel and headcount forecasts by program
• Apply and help interpret EAC cost; maintain historical cost records; prepare regular management reports
• Serve as a point of contact on assigned contracts and projects, coordinating with program management, contracts, and finance colleagues

What you bring

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Business Administration, or a closely related field, or equivalent experience
• 3-7 years of progressively responsible cost accounting, analysis, or financial analysis experience; aerospace, defense, or other regulated manufacturing exposure preferred

• Strong Excel skills; familiarity with Power BI or Tableau
