EY’s Government Contract Services (GCS) team assists businesses that contract with and participate in programs sponsored by U.S. state and federal government entities.

Your key responsibilities

It’s no exaggeration to say no two projects will be alike. You’re likely to balance your time between engagement planning with other GCS members, actively analyzing complex data, and participating in GCS practice development. It’s all about using your technical skills to creatively assess and resolve our clients’ needs from the front lines. That means thinking critically about the value we can bring to our clients, taking initiative to research regulatory information and industry insights, and speaking up with innovative ideas that challenge the status quo.

To qualify for the role you must have

• A bachelor’s degree in accounting, finance, business or related field
• 2+ years of related work experience
• Achieved, or be working towards a professional designation, such as CPA, CFA, CFE
• Experience working with U.S. state or federal regulatory programs, preferably including Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), CAS, Medicare, Medicaid, FSS, Agency Supplements to the FAR (such as the DFARS), and/or prevailing wage requirements under the Davis-Bacon Act (DBA) and Service Contract Labor Standards (SCLS)
• Effective project and time management skills and the ability to prioritize when working on multiple engagements
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Strong knowledge of PC-based tools (e.g., MS Word, MS PowerPoint, MS Excel)
• The ability and willingness to travel and work in excess of standard hours when necessary
• Access to reliable transportation to/from the EY office and client sites. A driver’s license is strongly recommended as ride share and public transportation options may not be available in all locations

Ideally, you’ll also have

• Experience managing Staff on multiple projects
