The Role

Own the numbers behind Lumen's next chapter of growth.

Lumen Digital is where our future is being built - a fast-moving, consumption-based business reshaping how the world connects. We're looking for a Senior Manager of Finance to be the analytical engine behind that growth. This is not a back-office reporting job. You'll sit at the center of the action, turning strategy, pricing, and customer usage into the financial story that guides executive decisions and shapes where we invest next.

You'll build the models, call the plays, and connect every dollar to momentum. If you thrive on pace, love turning ambiguity into clarity, and want your work to visibly move the business - this is your seat.
