Position Summary...We are seeking a builder-minded Production Financial Planning & Operations Manager to help transform how a high-volume creative organization manages its production finances. This role also plays a critical role in ensuring production financials are accurately represented within the broader Creative organization, partnering closely with Financial Planning counterparts to drive alignment, consistency, and a unified financial view of Walmart Creative.
About the team:

As the source of truth for production financial data, you will identify risks, explain variances, and translate insights into action. You will partner closely with Production, Finance, Resourcing, and Operations to align assumptions, resolve discrepancies, and create a unified financial reporting ecosystem that enables leadership to focus on strategic decisions.
