You’ll provide vital support to our Sales organization in closing critical customer and partner agreements, whilst ensuring that we comply with Google’s Commitment and Signature Authority Policy.

This role will require on-call work on weekends and holidays on a recurring basis.

The name Google came from "googol," a mathematical term for the number 1 followed by 100 zeros. And nobody at Google loves big numbers like the Finance team when providing in depth analysis on all manner of strategic decisions across Google products. From developing forward-thinking analysis to generating management reports to scaling our automated financial processes, the Finance organization is an important partner and advisor to the business.
