Key Responsibilities

Financial Planning, Forecasting & Decision Support

· Lead the annual operating plan, long-range plan, rolling forecasts, scenario analysis, and monthly business performance reviews.

· Develop integrated financial models covering operating expenses, workforce planning, capital expenditures, cash, and key operational drivers.

· Improve forecast accuracy through driver-based planning, clear assumptions, disciplined risk and opportunity tracking, and post-forecast performance reviews.

· Translate business dynamics into concise executive-level insights, recommendations, and decision alternatives.

· Partner with leaders to evaluate investments, product and customer opportunities, cost actions, and resource trade-offs.

Process Transformation, Automation & AI Enablement

· Assess current forecasting, budgeting, and reporting workflows; design standardized, scalable processes with clear ownership, controls, calendars, and service expectations.

· Automate manual data preparation, forecast consolidation, reporting, and variance analysis using fit-for-purpose planning, analytics, workflow, and integration tools.

· Apply experience with agentic AI, generative AI, machine learning, or intelligent automation to streamline planning activities, surface anomalies, generate first-draft variance narratives, and accelerate scenario analysis.

· Establish appropriate human review, data security, documentation, and control practices for AI-enabled finance processes.

· Define and track transformation outcomes such as planning cycle time, forecast accuracy, manual touchpoints, adoption, data quality, and decision speed.

Business Partnership & Cross-Functional Collaboration

· Serve as a finance business partner to Operations, Engineering, Supply Chain, Product Management, Corporate Accounting, Human Resources, and other functional leaders.

· Collaborate with international colleagues and teammates across time zones in a global, matrixed environment.

· Challenge assumptions constructively, influence without direct authority, and align stakeholders around fact-based decisions and enterprise priorities.

· Communicate complex financial and operational topics clearly to both finance and non-finance audiences.

Workforce Planning & Resource Allocation

· Partner with Human Resources and business leaders to connect workforce plans with financial plans, operating priorities, and productivity objectives.

· Develop headcount, compensation, hiring, attrition, vacancy, and organizational scenario models; improve visibility into workforce-related risks and opportunities.

· Enable disciplined resource allocation by linking roles, skills, capacity, and costs to strategic outcomes.

Performance Management, Governance & Leadership

· Lead monthly, quarterly, and annual performance reporting; identify trends, root causes, risks, opportunities, and corrective actions.

· Support executive presentations, Board materials, and management reviews with accurate, decision-oriented analysis.

· Partner with Accounting to ensure planning and reporting are aligned with company policies, financial controls, accounting standards, and audit requirements.

· Lead, mentor, and develop finance professionals while fostering accountability, curiosity, inclusion, continuous learning, and operational excellence.

· Promote collaboration and consistent practices across global finance and business teams.

Required Qualifications

· Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, Business Administration, Mathematics, or a related discipline.

· 7+ years of progressive experience in FP&A, corporate finance, operational finance, or related roles, including 3+ years of people leadership experience.

· Demonstrated experience supporting a manufacturing, telecommunications, networking, technology, or similarly complex product-based business.

· Strong command of budgeting, forecasting, financial modeling, scenario planning, management reporting, and performance analysis.

· Proven track record of building or redesigning finance processes and reducing manual work through automation, analytics, or workflow improvement.

· Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel and experience with business intelligence, enterprise resource planning, and financial planning platforms.

· Ability to operate effectively when priorities, inputs, or business conditions are evolving; skilled at creating structure, clarifying assumptions, and moving decisions forward.

· Excellent executive communication, cross-functional collaboration, stakeholder influence, organization, and problem-solving skills.

· Experience working across functions and with international colleagues in a global or matrixed organization.

Preferred Qualifications

· MBA, CPA, CMA, or another relevant advanced degree or professional certification.

· Direct experience in telecommunications or network equipment, including hardware, software, services, supply chain, and project-based models.

· Hands-on experience with SAP and SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC), including planning, forecasting, analytics, reporting, dashboards, or data integration.

· Practical experience using agentic AI, generative AI, machine learning, robotic process automation, or related capabilities in forecasting, budgeting, reporting, or decision support.

· Experience with workforce planning and associated systems, data, and governance.

· Experience supporting a publicly traded company and preparing executive or Board-level materials.

Leadership Profile

· Builder: Creates scalable processes, standards, and capabilities rather than relying on workarounds.

· Change leader: Brings others along, converts ideas into adoption, and balances speed with governance.

· Enterprise thinker: Connects commercial, operational, people, and financial drivers to the broader business strategy.

· Comfortable with ambiguity: Makes progress with incomplete information while clearly communicating assumptions, risks, and decision points.

· Collaborative and globally minded: Builds trust across functions, levels, cultures, and geographies.

· Hands-on and outcomes focused: Moves comfortably between strategic thinking, detailed analysis, and execution.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
