JOB DESCRIPTION
We believe that clothes — and how you make them — can make a difference.
Since 1853, we’ve been passionate about innovation to meet people’s needs. We invented the first blue jean. And we reinvented khaki pants. We pioneered labor and environmental guidelines for our manufacturing partners. And we build sustainability into everything we do.
A company doesn’t last more than 160 years by standing still. It endures by reinventing itself, striving to delight its consumers, winning in the marketplace, and by remaining true to its values. We employ more than 17,000 people around the world – supporting great brands, including Levi’s®, Dockers® and Denizen®. Our employees are committed to progress, authenticity and collaboration.

Reporting to the LSA, Senior Vice President of Finance, this role will lead the financial planning and analysis and finance controlling activities for the Digital business unit in the United States which includes the company operated ecommerce site, pure play distribution (e.g. Amazon) and social ecommerce (e.g. Instagram shopping).

! Provide timely, value-added insights into our business that will allow the business to thoughtfully manage investment decisions

About the Job:
! Lead budgeting, forecasting and analysis activities, including annual budgeting and quarterly forecasts for revenue, margin, and operating expenses working in coordination with Digital business unit and LSA regional partners.

! Lead key day-to-day business decision support with local management including but not limited to decisions on pricing, promotion, credit terms for wholesale accounts, inventory purchasing.

About You:
