Job Description

Salary :

EnDyna, Inc., a woman-owned small business (WOSB) headquartered in McLean, Virginia, is seeking talented professionals to join our team in support of a contract with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agencys (EPA). This position will directly contribute to OARs A-123 internal control and audit support initiatives, ensuring compliance, risk management, and program effectiveness across EPAs critical grant oversight activities.

Position Overview :

The Task Order Project Manager (TOPM) leads the grant oversight project, coordinating all team members and ensuring that project goals align with OARs mission and compliance mandates. Typically an experienced program manager with expertise in federal grants and risk management, this person serves as the central point of accountability for delivering improvements in grant oversight and internal controls. The TOPM integrates activities across the grant lifecycle from award monitoring to closeout with an eye towards reducing risk and enhancing efficiency. Please note that this position requires you to work from our McLean office 3 days a week.

Responsibilities :

Oversight : Oversees the project timeline, scope, and deliverables for all grant oversight activities, ensuring tasks like internal control reviews, fraud risk assessments, and compliance checks are completed on schedule and with high quality.

Risk Mitigation : Ensures the projects outcomes meet OMB Circular A-123 standards for enterprise risk management and internal control, integrating risk assessment practices into OARs grant processesepa.gov. This includes coordinating risk profiles and control evaluations so that management can identify and manage risks proactively (e.g. addressing any control gaps or fraud vulnerabilities discovered).

Audit Readiness : Prepares OAR for external audits and evaluations by enforcing audit-ready documentation and processes. The Project Manager guides the team to follow GAGAS principles in their reviews (e.g. maintaining independence, thorough documentation, and quality control)gao.gov, ensuring that any findings and corrective actions will stand up to Inspector General or GAO scrutiny.

Program Improvement : Drives continuous improvement by communicating insights and recommendations to OAR leadership and grant program staff. For example, if the teams transaction testing finds procedural weaknesses, the Project Manager works with the Grant Program SME to update policies or training. They also track implementation of improvements and verify that changes (such as new internal controls or training programs) actually reduce risk and improve grant outcomes over time.

GONE Act Compliance : Coordinates the projects efforts to support the GONE Act mandate of timely grant closeout. This includes tracking OARs portfolio of grants to identify any that are past their end date, compiling required reports on expired grants and undisbursed balances, and leading initiatives to resolve closeout delaysgrants.gov. By doing so, the Project Manager helps OAR demonstrate to OMB and Congress that it is actively closing out expired grants and addressing any challenges causing delays (e.g. overdue reports or administrative hold-ups).

Required Skills and Qualifications :

• Bachelors degree (Masters preferred) in Public Administration, Environmental Policy, Business, or a related field.
• 8-10 years of experience managing federal grant programs, preferably with direct EPA or OMB project oversight.
• Strong familiarity with OMB Circular A-123, GAOs Yellow Book (GAGAS), and federal grant lifecycle procedures.
• Demonstrated leadership in risk management, internal control evaluation, and fraud prevention within a federal grants context.
• Proven ability to manage large, multi-disciplinary teams and deliver results across planning, implementation, and closeout phases.
• Experience preparing federal programs for OIG or GAO audits, with a deep understanding of audit readiness standards.
• Track record of successfully aligning project deliverables with federal performance metrics and improvement mandates.
• Exceptional communication skills to coordinate across EPA offices and convey findings to senior federal leadership.
• Previous EPA experience highly preferred; other federal agency experience acceptable with equivalent oversight duties.
