Senior Financial Analyst - Cost Accounting

$100k - $120k

Creative Financial Staffing

Senior Financial Analyst

Woodbury, MN | Hybrid $100,000 $120,000

Are you a finance professional who enjoys getting beyond the numbers and influencing business decisions?

Were seeking a Senior Financial Analyst to partner directly with the CFO and operational leaders to improve profitability, optimize production performance, and support strategic growth initiatives. This role offers a unique combination of product costing, operational finance, business analytics, and ERP transformation, along with a clear path toward future Finance Manager advancement.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Direct exposure to executive leadership and key business decisions.
  • Opportunity to become a trusted advisor to operations and production leaders.
  • Clear growth potential into a Finance Manager role.
  • Lead Finances involvement in a major ERP implementation initiative.
  • High-impact position influencing pricing, margins, inventory, and capital investment decisions.
  • Opportunity to build reporting automation and business intelligence capabilities.
  • Blend strategic finance work with hands-on operational analysis.
  • Play a key role in improving efficiency, profitability, and long-term scalability.
  • Work in a collaborative environment where your recommendations drive action.

What Youll Do

  • Lead product costing activities and ensure accurate cost and profitability analysis across the business.
  • Analyze production, inventory, capacity utilization, and operational performance to identify trends and opportunities for improvement.
  • Develop financial models, ROI analyses, forecasts, and business scenarios to support strategic decisions.
  • Create and enhance management reporting, dashboards, and analytics tools to improve business insight.
  • Partner with operations, production, and leadership teams to translate financial data into actionable recommendations.
  • Support budgeting, forecasting, pricing analysis, and inventory valuation initiatives.
  • Help strengthen financial processes and lead finance workstreams during ERP implementation.

What Were Looking For

  • Bachelors degree in Finance, Accounting, or a related field.
  • 5+ years of financial analysis experience within a manufacturing environment.
  • Strong experience with standard costing and activity-based costing methodologies.
  • Advanced Excel skills and experience with ERP systems.
  • Power BI experience preferred.
  • ERP implementation experience strongly preferred.
