About the role

California State Auditor’s Office is seeking a qualified candidate to lead the state’s auditing program. The role focuses on directing audits of public funds and programs, and reporting findings to the Joint Legislative Audit Committee and Governor, with a mandate to maintain independence from political branches. Candidates should demonstrate strong leadership, auditing expertise in government settings, and the ability to communicate complex results clearly to legislators and staff.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
