Finance Lead, Marketing Finance
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "About Adobe" maybe considered boilerplate? It's about company description; but it's substantive? It's generic but maybe we keep as part of "About the role"? Actually "About Adobe" is company overview, not role-specific. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." We can include sections: Responsibilities, Qualifications & Experience (maybe combine Qualifications and Skills), Pay (since pay range given), maybe Benefits? Not given specific benefits; only mention "comprehensive benefits programs" in About Adobe but that's generic. Should we include Benefits? The posting mentions "comprehensive benefits programs" but not specific. The rule: never create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It states "comprehensive benefits programs" but not specifics. Might be considered too vague; better to omit Benefits. Schedule not mentioned. So sections: Responsibilities, Qualifications & Experience (maybe split into Qualifications and Skills?), Pay. Also maybe "About the role" could be the Position Summary. That's substantive. So include About the role (position summary). Then Responsibilities. Then Qualifications (maybe combine Qualifications & Experience and Skills). Then Pay.
We need to use for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting, but we can format them.
Let's extract content:
Position Summary: "This Marketing Finance Lead position is a strategic finance leader supporting the Global Marketing Organization, focused on providing thought leadership across planning and investment decisions."
That's the summary.
Key Responsibilities: multiple bullet-like paragraphs. We need to turn each into list items? The instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we should make a
with each responsibility as - . The responsibilities are grouped under headings: Data-Informed Decision Making & Strategic Business Partnership, Marketing Effectiveness & Investment Optimization, Budget Management & Financial Planning. Each has multiple sentences. We could either keep as separate
- per sentence or combine per heading. To preserve detail, we can make each sentence as separate
- . But we need to avoid losing detail. Let's list each bullet as separate
- . We'll parse:
Under Data-Informed Decision Making & Strategic Business Partnership:
- Act as a strategic Finance partner to Marketing leadership, connecting business strategy, marketing priorities, and financial outcomes.
- Build partnerships across Marketing and Finance to drive alignment, accountability, and effective decision-making.
- Partner with leaders to evaluate investment priorities, resource allocation, and trade-offs, ensuring spending aligns with strategic objectives.
Under Marketing Effectiveness & Investment Optimization:
- Develop financial analyses and scenarios that translate business questions into clear implications, recommendations, and actions.
- Develop a Finance point of view on investment priorities, trade-offs, risks, and opportunities and influence decisions through clear recommendations.
- Partner with Marketing teams to evaluate marketing performance, improve returns, and recommend where investments can be optimized.
- Create executive business reviews and presentations that translate financial and marketing trends into clear business implications and recommended actions, including end-to-end story development and executive-ready visualization.
Under Budget Management & Financial Planning:
- Lead financial planning and budget management, including forecasting, close, variance analysis, risks and opportunities, and scenario planning.
- Synthesize financial and business trends into concise narratives that clearly communicate what happened, why it matters, and what should happen next.
- Use AI, process automation, and data capabilities to improve FP&A and analytical workflows, accelerate insights, and enable better decision-making.
Now Qualifications & Experience: list:
- 7+ years of experience in FP&A, strategic finance, financial analytics, or related roles.
- Experience with financial modeling, forecasting, budgeting, and scenario analysis, capable of converting data into strategic recommendations.
- Strong executive communication expertise, demonstrated by independently developing leadership presentations and turning complex analysis into clear, compelling narratives.
- Ability to build effective partnerships, influence senior leaders, and navigate complex cross-functional decisions.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, capable of distilling complex information into clear messages for executive audiences.
- Creative and structured approach to problem-solving, capable of working effectively through ambiguity.
- Experience applying AI tools to improve productivity, analysis, or workflows, with the ability to identify and champion new ways AI can improve Finance processes and decision-making.
- Experience with data visualization, reporting, or automation tools such as Power BI or Power Automate is a plus; familiarity with SQL is preferred.
We could separate Qualifications and Skills sections, but we can combine as Qualifications (including skills). The instruction: Use headings for Qualifications, Skills. We could split: Qualifications (experience, years, modeling etc.) and Skills (communication, AI, tools). But to keep few sections, maybe just Qualifications. However we need to follow rule: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. We have content for both Qualifications and Skills. Could make two sections: Qualifications (experience years, modeling etc.) and Skills (communication, AI, tools). But we must not create thin sections with filler. Both have substantive content.
Let's decide: Qualifications: years of experience, financial modeling etc. Skills: communication, partnership, problem-solving, AI experience, tools.
We'll create:
Qualifications
- 7+ years of experience in FP&A, strategic finance, financial analytics, or related roles.
- Experience with financial modeling, forecasting, budgeting, and scenario analysis, capable of converting data into strategic recommendations.
Skills
- Strong executive communication expertise, demonstrated by independently developing leadership presentations and turning complex analysis into clear, compelling narratives.
- Ability to build effective partnerships, influence senior leaders, and navigate complex cross-functional decisions.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, capable of distilling complex information into clear messages for executive audiences.
- Creative and structured approach to problem-solving, capable of working effectively through ambiguity.
- Experience applying AI tools to improve productivity, analysis, or workflows, with the ability to identify and champion new ways AI can improve Finance processes and decision-making.
- Experience with data visualization, reporting, or automation tools such as Power BI or Power Automate is a plus; familiarity with SQL is preferred.
Now Pay: we have pay range details. Include as Pay
with containing the details. Must preserve all specifics: "Expected Pay Range: Our compensation reflects the cost of labor across several U.S. geographic markets, and we pay differently based on those defined markets. The U.S. pay range for this position is $128,700 -- $243,850 annually. Pay within this range varies by work location and may also depend on job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. Your recruiter can share more about the specific salary range for the job location during the hiring process. In California, the pay range for this position is $168,400 - $243,850 At Adobe, for sales roles starting salaries are expressed as total target compensation (TTC = base + commission), and short-term incentives are in the form of sales commission plans. Non-sales roles starting salaries are expressed as base salary and short-term incentives are in the form of the Annual Incentive Plan (AIP). In addition, certain roles may be eligible for long-term incentives in the form of a new hire equity award."
We need to keep that exactly. Also note there is a duplicate sentence "At Adobe, we believe in creating a company culture where all employees are empowered to make an impact." That's from About Adobe boilerplate; we should remove boilerplate. Also remove EEO etc. So we will not include About Adobe section.
We also need to include About the role (position summary) as
About the role
with .
Now ensure we don't include any navigation, cookie, legal, EEO, scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. We removed those.
Check for any duplicated lines: The posting had repeated "At Adobe, we believe in creating a company culture where all employees are empowered to make an impact." twice. We removed.
