We're seeking a Senior Financial Analyst who combines strong financial analysis with a solid accounting foundation to help us understand performance, improve profitability, and make informed business decisions. Reporting directly to the CFO, you will work across finance, accounting, and operations to translate financial and operating data into clear recommendations. Your work will connect what happens on the production floor with what shows up in the financial statements—and help determine what we do next.

Analyze materials, packaging, labor, overhead, production efficiency, and yield to identify opportunities to improve cost performance and profitability. Support pricing and commercial decisions. Evaluate customer, product, and SKU profitability; model pricing scenarios; and assess the financial impact of new business opportunities and changes in product mix. Connect financial analysis with sound accounting. Partner with accounting during the monthly close to validate results, investigate unusual balances and trends, and distinguish timing differences from underlying business performance. Improve cash and working capital visibility. Analyze inventory, receivables, and payables to support cash forecasting and identify opportunities to improve working capital. Assess investments and business initiatives. Prepare financial analyses for capital expenditures, capacity decisions, cost savings projects, and other priorities. Strengthen reporting and processes. Build useful management reports and dashboards, improve data accuracy, and streamline recurring analysis. Present findings in a format that helps both financial and operational leaders act.

Strong financial modeling and analytical skills, including the ability to translate complex data into practical business recommendations. A solid understanding of accounting principles, accruals, the monthly close process, and how the income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statement connect. Advanced Excel skills and experience working with financial systems and large datasets. The ability to reconcile information across sources, challenge assumptions thoughtfully, and produce accurate, well-supported work. Clear communication skills, including the ability to explain financial results to colleagues outside finance. Strong judgment, attention to detail, and the ability to manage competing deadlines with appropriate independence. Preferred qualifications MBA, CPA, or CFA. Experience in manufacturing, beverage, food, consumer packaged goods, or contract manufacturing. Familiarity with cost accounting, inventory valuation, standard costing, and manufacturing variances.
