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. Working on multiple projects at a time, you are focused on the details while finding creative ways to take on big picture challenges.

As someone who knows the workings of the core Finance team inside and out, you'll lead individual projects to transform planning, tracking and control processes. You'll provide senior level management with insightful recommendations, planning and reporting support.

In this role, you will have the opportunity to work on Google One, a growing business with more than 150 million subscribers, as well as Google Photos and Google Photos, a well-loved product with more then 1.5 billion users. You will play a leading role in managing Google One's AI subscription business that unlocks Google's most advanced AI capabilities. You work closely with cross-product teams (like Gemini, Labs, YouTube, Pixel, Home and Health) to bring premium third-party (3P) partnerships to life. As a trusted advisor and financial guardian, you will play a critical role in facilitating and influencing strategic product and investment decisions.

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.

Individual pay is determined by factors including job‑related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
