What you'll do

  • Define and execute the Finance data product strategy and roadmap for Treasury, Financial Risk, and Sustainability.
  • Advance the One Data Foundation by centralizing common data and reducing redundant transformations and legacy-platform reliance.
  • Embed governance by design into the data product lifecycle, including CDE identification, lineage, and data-quality rules.
  • Translate accounting, regulatory, and reporting requirements into scalable data products using agile and automated delivery methods.
  • Manage a global team across the U.S. and India to drive alignment and execution across organizational boundaries.
  • Modernize product delivery by implementing AI, automation, and emerging technologies to replace manual, waterfall processes.
  • Partner with technology and enterprise data teams to consolidate legacy platforms and align investments with enterprise architecture.

What we're looking for

  • Significant leadership experience in Finance, Treasury, data products, governance, or Finance transformation within a large financial-services organization.
  • Strong understanding of Finance and Treasury processes, including accounting, planning, balance-sheet management, and regulatory reporting.
  • Strong understanding of financial data models, including ledger structures, legal entities, products, customers, and key Finance dimensions.
  • Proven experience delivering enterprise or Finance data products for multiple processes and consumers.
  • Demonstrated command of governance, including CDEs, definitions, ownership, lineage, data-quality rules, metadata, controls, and certification.
  • Strong knowledge of control frameworks and BCBS 239 to translate regulatory expectations into sustainable execution.
  • Proven ability to use data and technology to redesign processes, strengthen controls, and replace manual waterfall delivery with agile, automated workflows.
  • Experience leading large, multidisciplinary global teams and influencing senior executives across organizational boundaries.
  • CPA, CFA, FRM, MBA, treasury qualification, or equivalent Finance/Treasury expertise (preferred).
  • Deep experience in banking, capital markets, asset servicing, or another regulated financial-services environment (preferred).
  • Experience establishing a product operating model and moving fragmented legacy environments toward a common enterprise data foundation (preferred).
