Position Summary

At CVS Health, we’re building a world of health around every individual — shaping a more connected, convenient and compassionate health experience.

The Director, FP&A Technology will lead the modernization of Enterprise Finance planning and forecasting capabilities by owning the end‑to‑end strategy, roadmap, and delivery of next‑generation FP&A technology solutions. This role will operate with a product-oriented mindset, translating FP&A needs into prioritized capabilities that improve forecast accuracy, planning agility, and decision support.

The solutions delivered in this portfolio are expected to increasingly reflect driver‑based planning principles—linking financial outcomes to underlying business drivers to enable faster scenario analysis, clearer variance explanation, and forward‑looking insights.

This leader will partner closely with FP&A leadership, Finance transformation stakeholders, and technology/data delivery teams to ensure solutions are scalable, well-controlled, and adopted across Enterprise Finance and segments.

Key Responsibilities

• Define and maintain a multi‑horizon strategy and roadmap for FP&A technology modernization, aligned to business priorities and measurable outcomes.
• Establish a clear “north star” for planning and forecasting experiences across Finance, focusing on improved agility, transparency into performance drivers, and better decision support.
• Drive investment tradeoffs and sequencing decisions across capabilities (planning, forecasting, scenario modeling, variance explanation, and performance measurement) to deliver value iteratively.

• Lead the buildout of planning and forecasting capabilities that connect financial results to operational and financial drivers and enable scenario‑based, forward‑looking insights.
• Establish standards and governance for planning constructs (e.g., drivers, assumptions, scenarios, and model usage) to support enterprise consistency while allowing fit‑for‑purpose flexibility.
• Partner with Finance stakeholders to identify and prioritize the most impactful drivers and KPIs—driver-based models focus on a smaller set of high‑leverage inputs to forecast broader financial outputs, improving speed and usability.

• Run centralized intake and prioritization for the FP&A modernization portfolio, translating requests into clear capability outcomes, sequencing, and measurable success criteria.
• Provide strong cross‑functional leadership across business and technical partners to deliver capabilities from discovery through launch, adoption, and continuous improvement.
• Ensure delivery plans incorporate risk management, dependencies, and readiness activities appropriate for Finance environments where planning outputs may inform material decisions.

• Partner with data/technology teams to ensure FP&A solutions are supported by reliable data pipelines, consistent definitions, and appropriate controls.
• Ensure solutions are scalable and reusable across segments, reducing proliferation of one‑off tools and spreadsheet-heavy processes over time.

• Drive adoption and sustained usage through stakeholder engagement, enablement plans, training, and feedback loops.
• Define and track outcomes such as forecast accuracy improvement, planning cycle‑time reduction, scenario agility, and user adoption, iterating based on results.

Required Qualifications

• 8+ years of experience leading complex initiatives in FP&A, finance transformation, planning systems, analytics enablement, or related domains, with increasing scope and accountability. ,
• 3+ years of leadership experience (direct people leadership and/or leading large cross‑functional delivery teams).
• Demonstrated ability to translate business needs into strategy, roadmaps, and measurable outcomes—balancing speed, quality, and stakeholder alignment.
• Strong working knowledge of FP&A planning and forecasting processes and the ability to improve them through systems, data, and operating model changes.
• Executive communication and influence skills, including the ability to present tradeoffs and recommendations to senior leadership.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience implementing or modernizing driver‑based planning or scenario modeling approaches (linking operational drivers to financial outputs).
• Familiarity with modern planning platforms and ecosystems (e.g., enterprise planning tools, analytics tooling, integration patterns), without requiring a specific vendor background.
• Experience working in regulated or control‑oriented environments where planning and forecasting outputs require defensibility and disciplined change management.

Education

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience required.
• MBA or other advanced degree preferred.
