Manager, Financial Analysis

Hiring Manager: John Dillon

This role is responsible for helping lead the multi-year transformation of Enterprise FP&A, with a focus on improving the effectiveness, efficiency, scalability, and connectivity of processes across the team. The role requires an individual with a strong understanding of FP&A, data and technology capabilities, and a process improvement mindset who can help shape and execute the roadmap for how Enterprise FP&A develops, analyzes, and delivers financial information to executive management.

Reporting to the Director of Enterprise FP&A, this role partners closely with the broader Enterprise FP&A team to understand end-to-end processes across planning, forecasting, management reporting, performance analysis, and decision support; identify opportunities for improvement; and design and implement solutions that simplify work, improve data quality and transparency, reduce manual effort, and strengthen analytical capabilities.

Over the next several years, the role will be expected to materially advance Enterprise FP&A toward a more integrated operating model by reducing fragmented and manual processes, increasing standardization and automation, improving connectivity across planning and reporting, and creating greater capacity for forward-looking analysis and decision support. Success will be measured not only by the implementation of new tools and processes, but by tangible improvements in cycle times, data quality, consistency, user experience, and the amount of FP&A capacity redirected toward higher-value work.

The role works cross-functionally with Finance Transformation & Enablement, SBU FP&A teams, and aligned data and technology teams to translate FP&A business needs into practical process, data, reporting, and technology solutions. A key expectation is to connect these efforts across the end-to-end FP&A value chain, challenge existing ways of working, and move improvements from concept through implementation, adoption, and measurable business impact.
