- Perform other duties as required in support of FP&A objectives
What We’re Looking For
- Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field
- 4–7 years of progressive FP&A, finance, or analytical experience (manufacturing or operations-focused environments preferred)
- Advanced proficiency in Excel (financial modeling, large data sets, pivots, formulas; VBA a plus)
- Strong experience with Power BI, Tableau, or similar BI / data visualization tools
- Demonstrated ability to consolidate data, synthesize insights, and clearly communicate “the why” behind the numbers
- Solid understanding of financial statements, cost structures, variance analysis, and forecasting concepts

- Master’s degree (MBA or MS Finance)
- Experience in manufacturing, packaging, or industrial environments
- Experience with FP&A systems and planning tools (e.g., Anaplan, Adaptive, Hyperion, or similar)
