Finance
Finance partners act as key strategic advisors to the senior leadership team (VP/deans/AVP) and other university leaders in faculties and business units. They provide financial information, tools, analysis and insight which allow senior leadership to make more informed, strategic decisions.
Finance partners communicate the performance of the faculty or unit's financial operations, identify potential concerns or opportunities and provide key information and concepts to facilitate discussion and decision making. Problem solving is one of their main contributions as strategic advisors.
The Finance Partner leads the Faculty’s budgeting and forecasting processes. The Finance Services Analyst works with the Finance Partner to support the faculty.
