• Oversee enterprise financial systems (IBM Planning & Analytics, HFM) for actuals and forecasting
• Analyze intercompany rent changes and their downstream impact on EBIT and consolidated financial statements
• Monitor property P&Ls for trend analysis, KPI development, and strategic initiative tracking
• Report on real estate's contribution to Scope 1, 2, and 3 carbon emissions as part of broader ESG reporting
• Lead and develop a team including an onshore FP&A analyst and offshore analytical support

What You Bring

• 10 years of FP&A experience with direct exposure to managing large-scale real estate, facilities, or occupancy cost portfolios
• IBM Planning & Analytics proficiency strongly preferred
• Demonstrated experience forecasting global rent, occupancy, and CAPEX
• Hands-on experience with enterprise financial systems (HFM, SAP/ERP or equivalent)
• Proven ability to manage both onshore and offshore teams effectively
• Experience with ESG and carbon emissions reporting is a plus
• Strong cross-functional communicator — comfortable managing up and across a global organization
