Description

Job Summary The Senior Financial Analyst serves as a key business partner to Operations, Supply Chain, and Commercial teams, providing financial planning, analysis, and decision support in our fast-paced manufacturing environment. This role owns forecasting, budgeting, and operational finance analytics, with a strong focus on manufacturing cost drivers, S&OP integration, and data-driven insights. This is a hands-on role that translates complex operational data into clear financial recommendations that improve margin, optimize production decisions, and support scalable growth. Essential Functions and Responsibilities (not restrictive) * Own the forecast process, integrating volume assumptions from demand planning with standard and actual cost structures to produce accurate P&L projections. * Build and maintain driver-based financial models that link operational KPIs (OEE, yield, throughput, scrap rates) directly to financial outcomes. * Lead the annual budget process for manufacturing cost centers, partnering with plant leadership to develop bottoms-up labor, material, and overhead budgets. * Deliver variance analysis (volume, mix, rate, spend) that goes beyond the numbers to explain the operational root cause and recommend corrective action. * Serve as the Finance representative in the S&OP cycle, providing margin and cost impact analysis for demand and supply scenarios; model the financial implications of production plan changes, including line changeovers, overtime decisions, co-manufacturing options, and inventory build/draw strategies. * Develop and maintain a landed cost and contribution margin framework by SKU, product family, and channel to support portfolio optimization decisions. * Quantify the P&L impact of demand volatility and supply constraints, translating operational trade-offs into financial language for executive decision-making. * Maintain and refine the standard cost model, including bill of material (BOM) costing, labor routing standards, and overhead allocation methodologies. * Support and model potential capacity expansion or other changes; evaluate the financial impact of engineering changes, supplier transitions, and process improvements, ensuring accurate reflection in forecasts and budgets. * Leverage ERP data (SAP, Oracle, or equivalent) and BI tools (Power BI, Tableau) to identify trends, anomalies, and opportunities that manual reporting would miss; build automated dashboards and reporting for real time visibility. * Conduct ad hoc analyses on pricing strategy, customer profitability, freight and logistics cost, and working capital optimization. Education, Training: * Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or related field. Experience Required: * 5+ years of progressive experience in FP&A, business analytics or related function * Experience in food or other CPG manufacturing required; pork/meat or other USDA-regulated product experience preferred Pay Range : $100,000-$120,000 per year Hybrid position Starting rate of pay may vary based on factors including, but not limited to, position offered, location, education, training, and/or experience.
