Job description

AlphaGov (Casa Moon LLC d/b/a AlphaGov) delivers public-sector consulting for cities, counties, school systems, special districts, utilities, and related agencies. Our work spans classification and compensation, organizational and operational studies, research and program evaluation, financial and grants-management services, compliance and audit support, and applied data and infrastructure research.

We engage experienced practitioners as project-based collaborators. Engagements are remote-first with travel as required for client and field sites. We build ready teams for live pursuits — not speculative staffing banks.

This opportunity is contingent upon contract award and final staffing approval. Permission will be requested before including a candidate’s name or resume in a proposal.

AlphaGov is seeking Staff Auditors to execute high-volume indirect cost rate reviews and support audits under a multi-year public-sector work-order vehicle — including desk reviews, overhead audits of consulting firms, and contract cost audits.

What you’ll do:

• Execute indirect cost rate and overhead desk reviews under work-order assignments
• Support GAGAS-compliant audits and produce complete review workpapers
• Apply FAR Part 31 / AASHTO Audit Guide concepts to consulting-firm overhead reviews
• Coordinate with the lead auditor and client compliance staff on findings and documentation
• Contribute auditor qualifications and past-performance narrative to AlphaGov proposals when permissioned

Required:

• Degree in an accounting-related field with a minimum of 27 semester hours in accounting (transcripts/diplomas required)
• Indirect-cost, overhead, or related compliance-audit experience
• Comfortable as a 1099 / project-based collaborator with moderate-to-heavy travel to Springfield, IL and statewide client facilities

Nice to have:

• FAR Part 31 / AASHTO Audit Guide experience
• Consulting-firm overhead audit experience
• CPA
• 1–2 prior indirect-cost or overhead-audit engagements you can cite
