Who are we?

Dynamic Integrated Services (DIS) is a proud Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business based in the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan area providing management consulting services to federal agencies and organizations supporting the public sector. DIS offers exceptional client services in the areas of Strategic Communications and Integrated Marketing (SCIM), Information Technology (IT), and Enterprise Optimization (EO).

Most Importantly!

At DIS, we are team oriented, continuous learners, hard-working, creative thinkers, and most of all 'kind people. We are a different kind of company with a truly unique culture; we celebrate people in all forms; one that values our employees and shares a mutual devotion to serving our clients with the highest forms of integrity.

DIS is seeking an Accounting Supervisor to provide functional oversight of accounting operations in a government contracting (GovCon) environment, ensuring accurate financial reporting, strong internal controls, and compliance with all applicable federal regulations.

The Accounting Supervisor serves as a technical accounting lead and primary reviewer for GovCon‑specific accounting activities, supporting compliance with FAR, CAS (as applicable), DCAA requirements, and company policies. The role works closely with Finance leadership, Contracts, and Program Management to ensure financial integrity across government contracts.
