About the job

At Google, data drives all of our decision-making. As part of the Finance Business Intelligence team, you will use data to inform business and product decisions across the company. Using your technical skills, business acumen and creativity, you will build tools to automate reporting and generate insight that will allow clients to quickly and accurately see how our key business products and processes are performing. Previous experience managing finance systems projects, with emphasis on providing business intelligence and data driven insight through reporting, will have equipped you well for this role. You’ll be involved in projects from inception to delivery, ensuring that your reporting delivers high-quality and relevant data to intelligently grow our business. You will also have extensive knowledge of key financial systems, such as Oracle and Hyperion, and experience working with a range of other business intelligence tools and platforms.

As a Program Manager on the Finance Data and Analytics (DnA) team, you will play a pivotal role in driving high-impact AI and data projects from initiation through to launch and landing. You will be the crucial link between Finance business stakeholders and various engineering teams (including DnA, FinEng, Cloud, and others). Your strong technical expertise and program management skills will be essential to ensure we design, build, and deliver innovative solutions that provide significant business value, are widely adopted, and can scale. You will be responsible for the how and when of project delivery, ensuring technical feasibility and orchestrating cross-functional execution.

The name Google came from "googol," a mathematical term for the number 1 followed by 100 zeros. And nobody at Google loves big numbers like the Finance team when providing in depth analysis on all manner of strategic decisions across Google products. From developing forward-thinking analysis to generating management reports to scaling our automated financial processes, the Finance organization is an important partner and advisor to the business.

Within the range, individual pay is determined by work location and additional factors, including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training. Your recruiter can share more about the specific salary range for your preferred location during the hiring process.
