Assistant Chief Financial Officer

California State Jobs

Assistant Chief Financial Officer

This position is currently posted for public comment and is pending California Department of Human Resources (CalHR) approval. Are you an experienced financial executive with expertise in long-range forecasting, strategic budgeting, fiscal analysis, and enterprise financial planning? As Covered California's Assistant Chief Financial Officer, you will lead policy development and oversight of core financial planning functions, including long-term enrollment, revenue and expenditure forecasting, participation fee rate setting, budgeting frameworks, fiscal risk management, and financial analysis that supports enterprise resource decisions.

In this role, you will lead the Forecasting, Budgeting, Systems, and Financial Planning and Analysis Units and serve as a strategic advisor to the Chief Financial Officer, Executive Director, Executive Staff, and Board. You will establish organization-wide financial planning standards, guide scenario modeling and fiscal risk frameworks, update budget policies, evaluate strategic investments and operational priorities, and help ensure Covered California maintains long-term financial resilience in a self-funded enterprise environment.

If you are prepared to translate complex financial analysis into clear, executive-level recommendations, shape strategic business plans, and oversee the finances of the nation's largest health benefit exchange, we encourage you to apply.

Why Join Us?

Covered California isn't just a workplace, it's a mission-driven community dedicated to ensuring healthcare accessibility and affordability for all Californians. As the Assistant Chief Financial Officer, you'll play a vital role in shaping financial strategies, forecasting practices, and resource planning decisions that protect Covered California's long-term sustainability and support its mission to expand equitable access to affordable health care.

Effective July 1, 2025, in response to the budget deficit, the Department of Human Resources (CalHR) has implemented the Personal Leave Program 2025 (PLP 2025). PLP 2025 requires that each full-time employee working their assigned work schedule receive a 3 percent reduction in pay in exchange for 5 hours of PLP 2025 leave credits monthly through June 30, 2027.

Review the full-duty statement to learn more about the duties and responsibilities of this position.

You will find additional information about the job in the Duty Statement.
