Finance Product Owner - Order to Cash
Posted May 22, 2026
The mission of The New York Times is to seek the truth and help people understand the world. That means independent journalism is at the heart of all we do as a company. It’s why we have a world-renowned newsroom that sends journalists to report on the ground from nearly 160 countries. It’s why we focus deeply on how our readers will experience our journalism, from print to audio to a world-class digital and app destination. And it’s why our business strategy centers on making journalism so good that it’s worth paying for.
About the Role:
This is a vital moment in the life of The New York Times. We have declared ourselves a subscription‑first company, staking our future on producing journalism worth paying for and developing deeper relationships with our readers across a growing bundle of products. In a rapidly changing information landscape, where facts are contested and trust is fragile, our mission to provide thoughtful, truthful and independent journalism is more crucial than ever. Our subscription business has grown close to 13 million subscribers, with a goal to reach 15 million and beyond by 2027. To support that ambition, we must modernize and tightly govern the systems and operations that power how we create and govern offers, bill customers, accept and settle payments, recognize revenue and report our performance. We are hiring a Director, Subscription Finance Technology to serve as the global process owner for our end‑to‑end Order to Cash (O2C) workflow. You will sit at the intersection of Finance, Commerce Platforms, Data Platforms, Tax, Internal Audit and Compliance. You will ensure that the way we design products and systems also protects the integrity of our revenue, our controls and our reporting. We are looking for a specialist in financial processes with technical knowledge. This specialist will oversee the O2C operating model. Additionally, they will partner with Product and Engineering to embed those requirements into the products and platforms being built. You will report jointly to the Corporate Controller and the Executive Director of Product, Commerce Platforms. This is a hybrid role based in our New York City headquarters. You can typically expect to be in the office three times per week. If you are excited by the idea of owning and evolving the financial backbone of a global subscription business — and ensuring that our ambition to grow is matched by equally strong operations, controls and data — we'd love to hear from you.
