About the job

Financial Analysts ensure that Google makes sound financial decisions. As a Financial Analyst, your work, whether it's modeling business scenarios or tracking performance metrics, is used by our leaders to make strategic company decisions. While working on multiple projects at a time, you are focused on the details while finding creative ways to solve big picture challenges.

In this role, you will partner with Asia-Pacific (APAC) Go-To-Market (GTM) to drive commercialization of media incentive agreements with the key advertising partners.

You will manage Google's media incentives programs including agreement modeling and accountability reviews. You should possess the ability to translate data into insights, using structured analysis to provide recommendations that influence decision-making at the executive level. 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.
