What this job involves:

This is a uniquely high-impact role that operates at two altitudes simultaneously.

At the same time, you'll run forecasting, three-year planning, and budgeting for Work Dynamics Americas across multiple business lines—WPM, PS, PDS, and WD Platform.

Few FP&A roles at this level combine global consolidation with hands-on multi-business ownership. You'll become the person who knows the numbers, understands the story behind them, and shapes where the business heads next—from both a 30,000-foot view and ground level s role contributes directly to JLL's strategic planning and operational excellence by ensuring leadership has accurate, actionable financial intelligence at both global and regional scales.

• You'll own end-to-end forecasting, three-year planning, and budgeting processes for WD Americas across WPM, PS, PDS, and WD Platform, keeping leadership overlays current and accurate throughout each cycle.
• You'll run variance analysis against prior forecasts each cycle, sizing risks and opportunities against run rate while gathering direct insight from business stakeholders to inform planning decisions.
• You'll maintain Monthly Performance Packets with current forecasting and planning data, building deep expertise in client tree nodes and account structures that makes you the go-to resource when complexity increases.
• You'll serve as the accessible expert for client finance teams, holding office hours on forecasting processes and responding to Teams questions so partners never feel stuck.
• You'll coordinate every PS submission and deliverable across regions, managing the submission calendar to keep consolidated decks and materials leadership-ready and current.
• You'll document every process and walkthrough comprehensively, building continuity that survives transitions and vacations while partnering with JBS to shift maintenance tasks offshore and free capacity for higher-value analysis.

Required Qualifications:

• Strong written and verbal communication skills with the range to handle quick operational questions and build boardroom-ready materials within the same cycle.
• Sharp attention to accuracy and presentation polish, given that output regularly reaches senior leadership for decision-making.
