Job Description

Standard Costing Analyst

Casper’s Ice Cream | Richmond, Utah (remote considered) | Full-Time

About Us

In 1925, Casper Merrill made the original Ice Cream Nut Sundae on a Stick in a ten-gallon milk can and sold it at the local 4th of July celebration. People wanted more! Today, FatBoy is AMERICA’S #1 BEST SELLING ICE CREAM SANDWICH, along with a growing portfolio of premium ice cream novelties and our Jolly Llama brand of dairy-free and gluten-free treats. Today, we’re still headquartered in Richmond, Utah, where it all began over a century ago.

The Opportunity

We went live on Microsoft Business Central and standard costing in 2026. Now we need someone to take our costing analysis to the next level. As our Standard Costing Analyst, you’ll make manufacturing costs and COGS predictable, accurate, and actionable, and you’ll tie every variance back to what happened on the plant floor. This role reports directly to the Corporate Controller.

What You’ll Do

\n
• Build and deliver a weekly Flash Variance report and provide support to the executive team.
\n
• Develop a monthly COGS bridge that explains gross margin changes: PPV, usage/yield, waste, labor, overhead, and absorption
\n
• Reconcile inventory and standard-cost activity to the GL so month-end has no surprises.
\n
• Connect financial variances to plant KPIs like OEE, yield, waste, downtime, and labor hours per unit.
\n
• Review new items, BOMs, and routings before they create problems.
\n
• Build and roll annual product standards and support inventory revaluation.
\n
• Provide cost-driver inputs for budgets and forecasts, and support SKU profitability, pricing, and make-vs-buy decisions.
\n

What You Bring

\n
• 3+ years in cost accounting, standard costing, plant finance, or manufacturing finance
\n
• Hands-on standard costing experience: BOMs, routings, labor and overhead standards, inventory valuation, and variance analysis
\n
• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Business Administration, or a related field
\n
• Advanced Excel skills
\n
• CPG or food manufacturing experience strongly preferred
\n
• ERP and BI experience a plus, especially Business Central and Power BI
\n

Who Thrives Here

You’re hands-on and curious. You take ownership of problems through to resolution, build strong relationships across Finance, Operations, and Procurement, and get energized by building a disciplined process that lasts.

What We Offer

\n
• $70,000 – $85,000 base salary plus 7.5% bonus
\n
• Insurance benefits start Day One! Health, Dental, Vision, Medical Clinic Membership, Employee Assistance Program
