As the Senior Director, Finance and Planning for Google Cloud, you will build and lead a team responsible for the Google Cloud Public Sector long range and annual operating plans, financial metrics reporting, and strategic finance (e.g., M&A analysis and financial integration, benchmarking, etc.).

In this role, you will partner with teams, peers and executives throughout Google Cloud/Google to develop resource allocation models and frameworks to support Google Cloud’s Public Sector growth. You will also focus on driving alignment and consistency with business partner leads, understanding what is needed to support business partners and providing analytical tools and models to measure, track, and report on KPIs.

The name Google came from "googol," a mathematical term for the number 1 followed by 100 zeros. And nobody at Google loves big numbers like the Finance team when providing in depth analysis on all manner of strategic decisions across Google products. From developing forward-thinking analysis to generating management reports to scaling our automated financial processes, the Finance organization is an important partner and advisor to the business.
