We see our people as, well, people - with interests, families, friends, dreams, and causes that are all important to them. Our focus is on the health and safety of our teammates as well as work-life balance and diversity and inclusion. From generous benefits to a variety of employee resource groups, we strive to build paths that encourage employees to stretch themselves professionally. We want to help you grow, develop, and learn new things. You’re constantly evolving, so shouldn’t your opportunities be, too?

Hybrid roles are generally expected to be in the office a certain number of days per week as indicated by your manager.

The Opportunity

The Senior Analyst – CFO AI Intake, Prioritization & Governance supports the CFO organization in establishing and operating a formal process for AI intake, evaluation, prioritization, governance, and portfolio reporting. This role helps ensure AI use cases across Finance are reviewed consistently, aligned to business priorities, and governed in accordance with enterprise risk, control, and model management expectations.

The Senior Analyst works across CFO business teams, technology, data, risk, and control partners to coordinate AI demand intake, facilitate prioritization, support governance routines, and provide transparency into portfolio decisions, risks, and delivery status.
