A Brief Overview

The Director, Global Finance Stewardship & Communications supports the VP, Enterprise & Global Finance Strategy and the Chief Financial Officer in advancing the effectiveness, alignment, and communication of the Global Finance organization. The role serves as a key extension of the CFO Office, supporting Finance communications, organizational engagement, change management, executive support activities, and strategic coordination efforts that help ensure Finance priorities are clearly communicated, organizational changes are effectively implemented, and leadership objectives are consistently reinforced across the organization. Working closely with the VP, Enterprise & Global Finance Strategy, the role serves as a central coordinator for Finance-wide communications, leadership messaging, change initiatives, employee engagement efforts, executive materials, and organizational support activities. The role provides critical capacity for the CFO Office by coordinating Board and Executive Committee support materials, earnings-related communications and preparation activities, organizational communications, leadership events, and enterprise-facing Finance initiatives. The role focuses on communication, coordination, engagement, organizational effectiveness, and leadership support rather than ownership of Finance strategy or transformation delivery. Ownership of Finance strategy, operating model decisions, strategic assessments, business cases, transformation priorities, and executive leadership activities remains with the CFO, VP, Enterprise & Global Finance Strategy, Global Finance COO, and functional leaders. The Director supports these activities through communication, change management, stakeholder engagement, executive preparation, and coordination efforts that enable successful execution.
