This is an exciting opportunity for a finance professional who wants to move beyond traditional reporting and play an active role in influencing business performance. Working closely with operational leaders and executive management, this individual will help translate financial information into meaningful business insights, identify opportunities for improvement, and support strategic decisions across the organization.

The organization is also committed to professional development and provides opportunities to expand responsibilities and grow within the finance team.

What You’ll Be Doing

Serve as a financial business partner to operational leaders, helping them understand financial performance and make informed business decisions.

Analyze financial results, identify trends, and communicate key findings and recommendations to management.

Take an active role in the annual budgeting process, ongoing forecasting, and long-term financial planning.

Develop financial models and analytical tools to evaluate business performance, investment opportunities, and potential cost savings.

Work with manufacturing and operations teams to understand cost drivers, evaluate production performance, and identify opportunities to improve profitability.

Evaluate product costs, pricing strategies, customer profitability, and margins to support commercial decisions.

Prepare financial presentations and reporting packages that provide leadership with visibility into business performance.

Partner with accounting to ensure accurate financial reporting, timely month-end close, and effective internal controls.

Participate in special projects and strategic initiatives that support organizational growth.

Identify opportunities to streamline financial processes, improve reporting capabilities, and increase the effectiveness of the finance function.

What We’re Looking For

Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.

Advanced Microsoft Excel skills and experience working with ERP systems.

Ability to interpret financial data and turn complex information into practical business recommendations.

Strong communication skills and the confidence to work with leaders across different departments.

A proactive mindset with the ability to identify problems, develop solutions, and take ownership of projects.

Why Consider This Opportunity?

Work alongside experienced finance and operational leadership.

Gain exposure to multiple areas of corporate finance and business operations.
