They work closely with other departments in the evaluation of programs, their impact in the organisation, the revenue that they can yield, and the financial efforts required.

The most in-demand skills for this role include accounting department processes, financial department processes, financial statements, financial forecasting, financial management, corporate social responsibility. These are the skills O*NET identifies as most important for competent performance.

Our AI-durability model gives budget manager a score of 0.50 on a 0-1 scale (higher = more exposure). That places it at moderate AI exposure — some tasks are being automated but the role adapts. Learning to work with AI tools rather than against them is the path forward.
