This is a senior individual contributor role for a finance professional who combines strong analytical and modeling depth with the executive presence required to operate as a credible thought partner to senior business leaders.

This role is built for a finance professional who is energized by complex business problems, comfortable building cost and margin models from first principles, and motivated by the opportunity to influence outcomes well beyond a reporting cycle. The right candidate is analytically rigorous, intellectually curious, and confident engaging directly with senior functional leaders as a peer.
