Job Summary
The Senior Manager, Global Revenue Planning & Consolidation will play a critical role within Customer, Revenue & Tech Finance, acting as the global owner and steward of the CR&T revenue forecast. This role brings together regional forecasts, commercial insight and Corporate FP&A requirements into one trusted global view of revenue performance, outlook, risks and opportunities. The role is the single link between Corporate FP&A and CR&T Finance on revenue, bookings and NFM, ensuring the organization has a clear, consistent and well-governed view of the numbers. The successful candidate will combine strong revenue forecasting expertise, analytical depth, executive storytelling and stakeholder influence. This is not a role that simply produces forecasts; it owns the global revenue forecast, challenges the assumptions behind it and ensures senior leadership has the insight needed to make informed decisions. In the operating model, Global Consolidation owns the number and the story; Business Partnering Enablement builds the engine that helps produce it; and Regional Teams own the business context behind it

Scenario Planning, Modelling & Strategic Analysis
Own global ad-hoc analysis and modelled revenue views, including GREET and other strategic planning requirements, with regional input
Run group-level scenarios to evaluate the impact of changes in demand, bookings, pricing, capacity and other revenue drivers
Support long-range planning, annual budget, quarterly forecasts and strategic initiatives with robust modelling and clear recommendations
