IT Vendor & Financial Operations Analyst

At Post Consumer Brands, we're looking for someone who thrives at the intersection of finance, technology, and operations - someone who brings structure to complexity and makes things work better. As an IT Vendor & Financial Operations Analyst, you'll play a critical role in managing and optimizing how we oversee IT spend, vendor relationships, purchasing processes, and asset governance across the organization.

This role offers the opportunity to work on everything from vendor coordination and invoice management to asset lifecycle governance and financial reporting in a dynamic, cross-functional environment. At PCB, you'll experience big company opportunity with a small company attitude - where your work is visible, your ideas matter, and you can truly make an impact.
