About the job

GBO Finance provides financial and analytical support and advice to Google’s Global Business Organization (GBO). Our work is integral to the operations and strategy of the commercial teams across all our advertising products. From understanding market and usage trends to exploring the productivity and return of our various investments, the GBO Finance organization is an important partner and independent advisor to the commercial leaders in our company.

In this role, you will serve as the Lead Analyst for Northern Europe (NE), partnering closely with the NE GBO Finance Lead to provide strategic and operational finance support to the Northern Europe Vice President and Leadership Team. You will act as a trusted counsel and analytical powerhouse, delivering executive-level financial insights, guiding commercial evaluations, and supporting resource allocation across this critical and dynamic EMEA cluster. As a Senior individual contributor and thought partner, you will combine exceptional commercial acumen and stakeholder influence with deep technical accuracy, and be energized by our mission to be the 'AI-Enabled CFOs of GBO'.

You will independently navigate large, complex datasets to craft compelling executive narratives, lead core operational cadences, and deputize for the Finance Lead in leadership forums as needed. You will effectively balance the role of advocate and challenger to support and constructively challenge commercial leaders. In this impactful role, you will be a professional who thrives in ambiguity, prioritizes with high autonomy, and drives scalable innovation across businesses and financial processes.

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.

Responsibilities

  • Partner closely with the NE GBO Finance Lead to advise commercial leadership, providing proactive data-driven counsel, influencing VP-level decisions, and deputizing in key operational forums.
  • Drive end-to-end annual planning, quota and goal setting, and ongoing performance reviews across Northern Europe Large Customer Sales, leading operational reviews and revenue optimization.
  • Lead weekly trading calls and deliver critical Quarterly Business Review finance inputs to guide commercial execution and strategic investment trade-offs.
  • Own the cluster's financial reporting architecture by leveraging SQL and Google sales platforms to build and scale robust pipelines and dashboards.
  • Leverage Generative AI tools, Python, and advanced SQL to automate recurring workflows, eliminate operational friction, and enhance analytical depth to advance an AI-first finance organization.

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.
