Job Description:

   

HPE is hiring a strategic, senior finance leader to run our central Corporate FP&A organization and restore enterprise forecast credibility. This role is a key business partner to the CFO organization, responsible for short‑term and long‑range planning, executive and board reporting, and leading a team of ~60 finance professionals.
