WhatsApp's mission is to Connect the world privately. More than 3 billion people in over 180 countries use WhatsApp to stay in touch with friends and family, anytime and anywhere. WhatsApp is free and offers simple, secure, reliable messaging and calling, available on phones all over the world.

Finance and Business Planning is a highly mission driven organization. Our mission is to enable Meta to plan, prioritize, and execute as effectively as possible.

You'll engage daily with business leaders, and act as both a financial business partner and strategic advisor to the leadership team.

An ideal candidate will be interested in the WhatsApp product, have experience working with business leaders on monetization and investment decisions, have a demonstrated interest in data and technology, and be able to self direct highly ambiguous and strategic projects. This role will offer you the opportunity to understand and contribute to many facets of business and product strategy.
