Corporate Planning & Management
Corporate Planning & Management (CPM) is a central strategic function at Goldman Sachs, responsible for driving firmwide operational excellence, business planning, and the infrastructure that enables the firm to operate with strength, resiliency, and agility. CPM partners across every division to deliver scalable solutions, optimize business processes, and position the firm for sustainable growth. The CPM Division unifies Finance & Planning, Spend Management, Operational Risk and Resilience, and CPM Engineering teams to deliver business planning and analytics, expense management, third‑party risk management, and governance strategies across the firm.

The Global Procurement team is focused on optimizing the procurement experience for internal firm‑wide stakeholders, Goldman Sachs suppliers, and Global Procurement operations teams – driving customer experience excellence, enabling frictionless interactions across the procurement lifecycle, and delivering scalable solutions anchored in the SAP Ariba platform ecosystem.
