About the job

Google accountants are a savvy bunch who handle the core accounting responsibilities at Google. You know your accounting principles and the full accounting process end to end. You'll advise on financial reports required by governmental regulations, and review, analyze, and interpret financial and budgetary reports. Every day is a new challenge, and you're continually looking for ways to help our team become more efficient and effective. A team player at heart, you collaborate with our global team, advocate best practices and pitch in where needed. You move fast while keeping your attention to detail, and you tap into your problem-solving skills to support business objectives.

You'll lead an accounting process from end-to-end. Other responsibilities include reconciling balance sheets and P&L accounts, and providing supplementary financial information for internal and external reports.

In this role, you will be a key contributor to the Devices and Services (D&S) Controllership team and partners closely with a number of stakeholders. You will drive cross-finance collaboration, support finance and business-led initiatives, implement and seek to improve processes and enable transformation via system/process initiatives. You will work with various stakeholders (Supply Chain, Fulfillment, Systems, Fin Ops, Sales, Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A), and Legal) to develop and execute processes for Devices and Services Product Areas (DSPA’s) global order to cash, revenue recognition, and related systems areas. You will play a key role in driving system and process scalability via your insights on the end-to-end process.
