Description Role Summary The Company is seeking a strategic finance professional who will be reporting to the Director, Financial Planning & Analysis (“FP&A”). The Manager will lead the cash flow forecast process for multiple portfolios and participate in aspects of the annual budgeting and quarterly reforecasting process. Other deliverables will include ad-hoc requests and process improvement initiatives.

The ideal candidate will be a seasoned Manager who is proactive and intellectually curious and driven to deliver insights that shape financial strategy. The Manager must have proven management and communication skills, with experience leading cross functional initiatives. Given the nature of this role, the candidate must be adept at managing ambiguity and converting broad directives into clear, actionable plans.

Core Responsibilities

• Monitor liquidity position for Pure’s multiple industrial portfolios and provide weekly insights and recommendations based on evolving business activities
• Develop and maintain forecasting models to project short and long-term liquidity positions, including sensitivities and scenarios based on monthly and weekly changes, budget or reforecasted KPIs and financing, acquisitions/dispositions, development projects and other similar activities

• Oversee performance and coach one Analyst who will support aspects of the cash flow forecasting process

Please note that this role has one direct report and given the team size and fluidity of the deliverable, the Manager is expected to directly prepare and update forecast models on Excel and PowerPoint regularly.
