Your Route Into Business Ops

At Via Logic, we're a growing government contracting company, which means this role is a little bit of everything - but first and foremost, we're looking for someone who understands how to keep the operational, financial, and compliance side of the business running smoothly.

As a Business Operations Specialist, you'll support finance administration, government contracting operations, compliance activities, people operations, and internal business processes. One day you may be helping track contract-related documentation, expense reimbursements, or invoices; the next you may be coordinating onboarding activities, supporting recruiting efforts, or helping improve an internal process. If you're organized, resourceful, detail-oriented, and enjoy wearing multiple hats in a growing business, you'll thrive in this role.
