About the Job

Google's leadership team hand-picks thorny business challenges, and members of BizOps work in small teams to find solutions. As part of this team you fully immerse yourself in data collection, draw insight from analysis, and then zoom out to develop compelling, synthesized recommendations. Taking strategy one step further, you also persuasively communicate your recommendations to senior-level executives, roll-up your sleeves to help drive implementation and check back-in to see the impact of your recommendations.

We provide Global Business Organization (GBO) leadership with strategy and insights, which maximize the value of our business to customers and to Google, through commercial actions we identify, prioritize, monitor and evaluate in partnership with Global Partnerships and Solutions (GPS), GTM and other Finance teams. As part of this team, you will have the opportunity to flex technical, investigative, strategic and business partnering skills to influence executive decisions.

Within GBO Product Finance, the Search+Core team is responsible for partnering with the GPS Search+ organization, and in charge of incrementality and opportunity sizing across products in partnership with Econ, as well as the Google Compute Engine (GCE) team. In addition, we build core infrastructure and tooling to be utilised across the wider analyst community in GBO Finance.

You will have a high degree of curiosity and passion about Google, wanting to positively influence the strategic direction of the Ads business, and how to operate in a changing and at times unstructured environment as part of our globally distributed team with big goals. We are also leading innovation in deploying AI at scale to solve business problems.

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