VPRA is responsible for promoting, sustaining, and expanding the availability of passenger and commuter rail services in the Commonwealth, including all administrative and fiduciary responsibilities for Virginia's state-supported passenger rail services. The VPRA also funds Virginia Railway Express (VRE) and administers all capital expansion projects, infrastructure, and land acquisitions related to the $3.7 billion Transforming Rail in Virginia initiative, which will double Amtrak and VRE service in Virginia over the next decade. The VPRA acts as a "responsible public entity" for the acquisition, construction, improvement, maintenance, or operation of a "qualifying transportation facility" under the Public Private Partnership Act of 1995.

  • Reconcile all payroll-related accounts to ensure accuracy and facilitate timely payment processing to benefits vendors.
  • Serve as a partner to internal departments, including Procurement, FP&A, Engineering, and Rail Services, to gather and organize data.
  • Provide regular training to internal departments in reviewing invoices, locating payments in MD365, and submitting travel and expense reimbursements.
  • Assist with the month-end closing process, including journal entries and reconciliations.
  • Coordinate the year-end accrual process with internal project managers and external vendors to obtain accurate estimates on capital projects for financial reporting.
  • Assist with annual audit and financial statement preparation.
  • Assist with the continued development of fiscal policies and procedures related to the position.
  • Assist with special projects as needed.
