Job description

Job Description Summary: Great products do more than make work easier. They change what's possible. Across Coca-Cola's North America Operating Unit (NAOU), we're building a product organization focused on solving meaningful problems, creating exceptional experiences, and delivering measurable business value. Our small, empowered teams bring together product, design, engineering, and analytics to challenge how things work today and build better solutions for tomorrow. We're investing in the products and capabilities that power some of our most important business decisions, including how we plan, forecast, and manage financial performance. We're looking for curious, thoughtful product leaders who love tackling complex problems, aren't afraid to challenge the status quo, and know how to bring people together to turn ambitious ideas into meaningful outcom.

About the Role

The Senior Product Manager, Financial Planning & Performance will help reimagine how our Finance and Commercial teams plan for the future, understand performance, and make decisions that drive our business forward. Today, creating customer financial plans, forecasting performance, and understanding financial results often means navigating fragmented tools, disconnected data, and manual processes. We see an opportunity to fundamentally change that experience. Imagine a world where financial plans are easier to create and adapt, forecasts are more reliable, and teams can quickly understand what's happening in the business, why it matters, and where to take action. That's the opportunity you'll help bring to life. You'll own the product vision and direction for this space, shaping an integrated planning and performance capability that connects people, processes, and data. Your work will span everything from simplifying how financial plans and forecasts are developed to helping teams understand variances, anticipate risks, and make more informed decisions. This isn't about taking a list of requirements and delivering a new system. It's about asking better questions, challenging existing assumptions, and working with users to discover what will make the biggest difference. You'll have the opportunity to shape the product from its early stages, make meaningful decisions about where to invest, and see the impact of your work across the business. You'll work as part of an empowered, cross-functional team alongside engineering, design, and analytics, partnering closely with Finance leaders. We're looking for someone who brings strong product judgment, curiosity about how businesses work, and the ability to turn complex challenges into simple, effective experiences.
