Senior Financial Analyst and Transformation Lead

At Apple, we don't just improve financial processes incrementally. We rethink how they should work. The Corporate FP&A team is building the next generation of balance sheet and cash flow forecasting. We are actively exploring how AI, machine learning, and evolving Finance Transformation tools can enhance and modernize our process. We are working toward an analytical framework that can translate revenue, COGS, and operating expense dynamics into forecasts that are accurate, scenario-ready, and trusted at Apple scale. We are looking for a financial thinker who sees forecasting not as a reporting exercise but as a systems-level modeling challenge. Someone who can own Apple's consolidated balance sheet and cash flow forecast, bring the financial judgment to make it accurate, and serve as a bridge between finance, systems, and the process transformation efforts reshaping how forecasting works across the company. - Why This Role Is Different - Most balance sheet and cash flow roles ask you to consolidate inputs from other teams. This role asks you to build the intelligence behind the forecast itself and to own the judgment calls that determine its key assumptions. Revenue and cash move on different timelines. Channel sell-in differs from cash collection. Small shifts in working capital days move billions. Inventory builds consume cash before revenue arrives. Deferred revenue from services inverts the timing. Accruals, non-cash items, tax timing, and FX each create gaps between what the P&L says and what cash actually does. Nothing moves alone, and the person in this seat needs to hold that integrated picture. The role has two dimensions. You'll partner with teams across the company to collect their forecasts and insights on cash flow. And you'll work internally within Corporate FP&A to develop and refine our own complex assumptions and models where we own the analysis directly. The output of both feeds into a consolidated view that is shared monthly to Senior FP&A leadership, Treasury, and the CFO to support strategic considerations and decision-making.
