Pay: $47 - 52 per hour on W2
Duration: 6 month contract, possible extension
Location: Onsite in Seattle, WA
Job Description:
The accountant owns the inventory accounting for "client" Pharmacy ("Pharmacy"), which includes all pharmacy inventory cycle accounting events (receipts, returns/adjustments, dispenses), cost of goods sold ("COGS"), inventory reserves, and supplier rebates. This role operates as an embedded controllership function within the health business due to the nature of its nascent and partially integrated processes.
REQUIRED SKILLS
Responsibilities:
Pharmacy accounting processes present unique complexities through non-integrated systems and data, unique high-volume legal entities, multiple 3P service providers (ex., Medicaid, Blue Cross, UHC, GoodRx, etc.), and compliance-related matters with the use of protected health information. As a result, this role works with non-standard processes and data sourced from 1P (Pharmacy owns and sells directly to customers or wholesalers) and 3P systems.
It requires the ability to identify and resolve data quality issues through internal controls, data analysis, and calculations to determine the reasonability of financial results (refer to using math and logic to check whether reported figures are plausible or consistent with other known data. It's not about proving something is correct-just whether it seems reasonable).
This role requires effective communication and frequently educates non-accountants about financial processes, data sources, controls, and systems. The Finance Manager must identify incomplete or inaccurate data, determine the root cause, and partner on the resolution.
Lastly, this role leads and implements process improvements, including financial system integration on-boarding and simplification initiatives to reduce month-end close timelines.
Must be authorized to work in the United States
Why Join?
This role offers the chance to impact financial performance, gain exposure to strong leadership principles, and grow professionally-all with competitive pay and potential for long-term engagement.
