About the Role

The Company is in search of a Vice President of Finance & Accounting to join their mission-driven team. The successful candidate will be a key financial leader, responsible for FP&A, accounting, financial reporting, treasury, audit, tax, and finance operations. This role demands a hands-on approach, with the VP expected to lead strategic and execution-level activities, including budgeting, forecasting, and long-range planning. The VP will also oversee the company's financial model, cash forecast, and performance reporting, and must be adept at translating financial data into actionable insights. Strong leadership and team management skills are essential, as is the ability to partner with business leaders on various financial matters. Applicants for the Vice President of Finance & Accounting position at the company should have a Bachelor's degree in a relevant field, with a preference for advanced qualifications such as a CPA or MBA. A minimum of 10 years' progressive finance and accounting experience is required, with a background in a similar senior finance role. The ideal candidate will have a strong understanding of U.S. GAAP, financial reporting, and internal controls, and be experienced in managing and developing finance and accounting teams. Advanced skills in Excel, financial modeling, and experience with ERP and business intelligence systems are also necessary. The role calls for a leader with a hands-on, execution-oriented approach, strong financial judgment, and the ability to communicate effectively with a range of stakeholders. Experience in a fast-paced, multi-channel, or inventory-based business, particularly in the food industry, is a plus.
