Global Lease Accounting Manager

Meta is seeking a full-time Global Lease Accounting Manager to join the Global Lease Team within the Corporate and Infrastructure Controllership Group.

The Global Lease Team sits at the center of Data Center Strategy and Leased Sites, supporting the full lifecycle of Meta's Data Center, Fiber, and Facilities leases, from site selection and deal structuring through commencement, ongoing accounting, modification, and end of term. These leases underpin the infrastructure Meta's products run on.

In this role, you will own the accounting transactions and processes that support daily operations, ensure compliance with U.S. GAAP and internal policies, and play a critical part in Meta's month-end close. You will also shape how lease accounting scales with the business: defining the direction for process and systems change in areas where the problem statement and strategy are not yet settled, and partnering with business, finance, and technical stakeholders to deliver scalable, secure, and flexible solutions in a fast-moving global environment.

As the company-level subject matter expert for lease accounting, you will represent the Global Lease Team in cross-functional forums and stand behind judgments that affect reported results.
