As a Finance Strategic Business Advisor (SBA), we partner with colleges and units across campus to support strategic finance initiatives focused on the University Plan 2025 in being the university the world needs (nīkānītān manācihitowinihk; ni manachīhitoonaan).
Nature of Work
We are looking to continue to grow and expand our Finance SBA team which is part of the Administration portfolio, which includes shared services, human resources, finance, services, and ICT.
Finance SBAs are assigned to support specific colleges and units and implement broader Administration initiatives. Reporting to the Senior Finance SBA and under the direction of the Dean, College of Nursing and the Director of Operations and Strategic Planning (and other senior leadership as required), the SBA is a strategic finance partner for the above portfolios, providing support to leadership in the College of Nursing. The SBA provides financial support to and works with leaders to develop and implement solutions that achieve priorities and outcomes.
Relationships are at the heart of what we do and it is critical that we are comfortable and effective in working across multiple, diverse and at times, challenging stakeholder groups. From academics to administration, research to operations, we work with all groups in identifying, planning, and implementing financial best practices to advance the mission of the university.
Primary responsibilities of the Finance SBA role include financial analysis, financial management, reporting, budgeting and controls, and cost management. The SBA assists leadership teams with various financial activities while maintaining a strong connection to Central Financial Services and other SBAs on campus. The SBA demonstrates a combination of strong university acumen and financial functional knowledge to participate in the development of financial plans and strategies. The SBA supports the delivery of unit activities and processes while contributing to the strategic and operational planning and development of financial services across the University.
The SBA addresses complex financial matters, applying comprehensive financial management skills and offering exceptional client service, often during periods of change, high work volumes, and stringent deadlines. The SBA facilitates and assists with auditing, reporting, and accounting requirements for the portfolio, and ensures compliance with ethical accounting standards and university policies and procedures. In providing various financial services, the SBA exercises discretion and judgment in maintaining confidential information, and applies sound practices with a consistent, proactive and collaborative approach.
