ABOUT THIS ROLE
At Audible, content is at our core; as a member of the Global Content Finance & Corp Dev team, you’ll use both qualitative and quantitative methods to identify strategic opportunities for Audible to provide a differentiated offering that delights our customers. Drawing on cross-functional expertise, you will present opportunities for new organic growth to our senior leadership team and partner across the business to develop operational plans to make those opportunities a reality. Our team seeks individuals who are passionate about using data to help drive informed decisions for the company and our customers. We’re looking for an analytical and creative thinker, with the ability to ask the right questions and develop a point of view that will influence decisions.

ABOUT YOU
You are an entrepreneur capable of building and executing independently or as part of working teams; must be able to identify and act upon an opportunity or problem without explicit instruction. You are someone who is a data-driven strategist who will readily abandon closely held-ideas in favor of stronger evidence — constantly iterating to make our offering better for customers. You have exceptional written and verbal communicator with a knack for making complex topics simple and evangelizing and inspiring people at all levels of the organization based on a shared vision. You have a creative left and right brain who has an exceptional ability to balance creativity with strong business judgment and analytical skills. You have a high tolerance for ambiguity and complexity with the ability to quickly change focus and balance the needs of the moment with longer-term goals. You are a resilient with positive attitude – even the stiffest challenges are possible with the right amount of creativity, good judgment, and hard work. Exhibit strong integrity and ability to follow through on commitments and deadlines.
