Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Lead high-complexity financial analysis and modeling for corporate development activities, including mergers, acquisitions, and joint ventures. Partner with executive leadership to structure non-standard transactions and drive strategic financial trajectories for the company.
Requires a Bachelor's degree and at least 15 years of experience in finance, investment banking, or consulting, including 7+ years of management experience. Must have demonstrated expertise in quantitative analysis, financial modeling, and negotiating complex commercial terms with external counterparties.
Position Title: Associate Director, Strategic Finance
Location: San Diego (Hybrid) or Foster City, CA (Hybrid)
This is a full-time role, Monday through Friday, with an expectation of 2–3 in-office days per week and additional on-site presence as needed. The individual must reside in the San Diego or Foster City area and be able to commute to our corporate offices. Relocation assistance is available and should be completed within a six (6) month period or a mutually agreed upon time.
Reports To: VP, Strategic Finance
FLSA Status: Exempt
The Associate Director, Strategic Finance is responsible for providing high-complexity, transaction-related finance support across Illumina’s most complex and consequential corporate and business development activities, including efforts related to the formation of new businesses, joint ventures, and new ventures. This position independently coordinates the financial analysis, modeling, and accounting support for mergers, acquisitions, partnerships, alliances, joint ventures, divestitures, and licensing agreements, as well as structured equity and debt investments, multi-party commercial arrangements with non-standard structural and accounting treatments, and financial workstreams in support of litigation and other contested matters, and provides input on deal structuring.
The role is engaged directly and routinely by the CFO and other members of the Executive Leadership and Finance Leadership Team to drive financial analysis, structuring, and negotiation on transactions that fall outside the scope of standard corporate processes and that materially shape the company’s strategic trajectory. The work is characterized by ambiguity, executive-level scrutiny, and the need to partner with the VP Strategic Finance and financial accounting and legal teams to construct first-of-their-kind deal structures rather than execute against established templates.
Listed responsibilities are an essential, but not exhaustive list, of the usual duties associated with the position. Changes to individual responsibilities may occur due to business needs.
This role influences enterprise-level decisions by evaluating and recommending complex corporate transactions and capital-intensive investments that can materially impact Illumina’s strategic direction and financial outcomes. The Associate Director operates with a high degree of autonomy, applying strong judgment to assess risk and trade-offs and supporting decisions on capital deployment, investment prioritization, and transaction feasibility across an active pipeline.
This role does not have direct reports. The position provides significant leadership through influence, including advising senior leaders, partnering cross-functionally across Finance, Legal, Accounting, and business teams, and leading financial workstreams across complex, high-impact initiatives.
All minimum qualifications are job-related and consistent with business necessity.
