The opportunity

The right Accountant sees a budget not as a cage but as a map, and Blue Cross Blue Shield wants that mind in Gaithersburg, MD. The Gaithersburg role is less about the $112,000 - $164,000 and more about what 6 years of Risk Assessment lets you own at Blue Cross Blue Shield.

Key Responsibilities

  • Stand up internal controls that survive a surprise audit
  • Own the Organization-to-Risk Assessment handoff so reporting never stalls between teams
  • Build the close documentation a new senior hire could follow blind
  • Sit with sales on deal structure before the documentation-first contract is signed
  • Keep deferred revenue schedules airtight as contracts renew
  • Streamline month-end close to reduce reporting turnaround time
  • Carry the senior budget reforecast through three rounds of leadership review
  • Reconcile the remote benefits invoice against enrollment line by line

What You'll Bring

  • Self-direction that survives a quiet Slack channel
  • Clear thinking under the kind of pressure Gaithersburg, MD deadlines bring
  • Track record that proves you can safety-first ship under deadline pressure
  • Experience thriving in a relentlessly curious, deadline-driven setting like Blue Cross Blue Shield
  • A refreshingly-candid attitude and eagerness to learn new skills
  • Ability to thrive both independently and as part of a tight-knit team

Blue Cross Blue Shield builds the unglamorous finance plumbing that Gaithersburg, MD relies on, and it does so with documentation-first pride. Our team in MD keeps a running list of what we'd do differently, and we actually act on it.

Yours for the taking: $112,000 - $164,000, a mentor, a benefits plan, and the room to grow your Financial Modeling and ACA side by side.

This one is current, freshly dated, and very much hiring.
