Your Role
The Corporate Financial Accounting and Reporting team is responsible for the accurate recording, analysis, and reporting of financial information for Blue Shield of California. The Accountant Consultant will report to the Accounting Manager and serve as a trusted extension of the manager, helping translate priorities into execution, lead day-to-day accounting and reporting activities, resolve complex technical accounting matters, and provide review, guidance, and oversight to the team. This role carries expanded responsibilities and requires strong technical accounting expertise, sound judgment, and the ability to operate with greater independence than a Senior Accountant role.

You will use strong analytical and problem-solving skills to evaluate complex accounting issues, apply accounting standards to facts and circumstances, document conclusions, and communicate recommendations to leadership, auditors, and business partners. You will also help strengthen processes and controls, coach team members, and support continuous improvement across the accounting function.
