David Pope Email & Phone Number

David Pope is a Director, Technical Accounting at Uber. He is proficient in German. Colleagues describe him as "Working with David was one of the highlights of my career and I could not recommend him enough. He is an outstanding manager - and in particular I appreciate how makes everyone on his team feel heard and valued. He gives his team the perfect balance of autonomy and guidance/stewardship, and always makes himself available to support his team, no matter what else is going on. He genuinely cares about his people and wants to see them grow and be successful in their careers. One thing I always admired was his combination of business and technical expertise, as well as his willingness to "roll up his sleeves" and genuinely understand the granular details, whether it was reviewing the logic of automated systems, delving into specific contracts or insurance statutes, or anything in between. He also built very strong relationships with a wide variety of stakeholders, across both technology (product/data) and business groups. Overall, David would be a great asset to any company, and I would jump at the opportunity to work with him again in the future.", "During my 3 years at Esurance, I had the opportunity to work with David. David always had a smile on his face and an optimistic attitude no matter how stressful or challenging the situation was. His door was always open, and always made time for any questions I had regarding our monthly closing process or anything accounting related. His positive attitude and his dedication to work as late as necessary to make sure that our monthly closing process was successful will be missed.", and "I had the pleasure of working with David for two and a half years at Esurance. He is smart, extremely approachable, naturally curious, solutions oriented and business minded. On every project we worked on together, he demonstrated his analytical skills and his business acumen. He sought to understand the business problem and identify the root cause. Any organization would be lucky to have David as part of the team."
