Responsibilities
- Leading Financial Operations: You will lead and manage all aspects of IT finance operations, including budgeting, forecasting, long-range capital planning, and variance analysis.

- Managing a Team: You will have two direct reports, an Accounts Payable Specialist and an IT Finance Analyst, and will be a key part of the broader IT pillar.
- Ensuring Financial Compliance: You’ll be responsible for approving invoices and purchase orders, ensuring they align with financial policies. You’ll also oversee the financial alignment of consulting contracts and track software and hardware assets.
- Collaborating and Communicating: You will work closely with both IT and central finance teams. Your ability to translate complex financial concepts to IT leaders and vice versa will be crucial to your success.

We are seeking someone with a strong FP&A background who can also communicate effectively about IT-specific vendors, hardware, and software.
- Experience: A minimum of five years of progressive finance experience, with at least two years in an IT finance or technology-focused financial management role.
- Skills: A strong understanding of financial planning, budgeting, and forecasting processes is essential. You must have advanced analytical skills and be highly proficient in Excel. Experience with financial operations systems, especially tools like IBM Apptio, would be a significant advantage.
- Designation: A CPA designation is preferred, but open to candidates with an MBA or other strong finance backgrounds who have a solid understanding of finance principles.
- Traits: Excellent communication and interpersonal skills are non-negotiable. We're looking for someone who is personable and can build strong relationships with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
