About the Role
This is a pivotal moment. This is not a typical FP&A position; we need someone exceptional to help lead a finance transformation. You’ll be part finance operator, part systems architect, part data thinker, excited by the challenge of making complex financial data flow cleanly, fast, and intelligibly across a growing global business. You’ll work at the intersection of Finance, Commercial, Operations, Supply Chain, and Technology, shaping how we plan, report, and make decisions as we move into our next phase of growth. You’ll also be helping build the foundations that support our future strategic ambitions. You should feel equally at home building a forecasting model, redesigning a chart of accounts, mapping system integrations, or using AI to automate workflows that currently consume time. This is an opportunity to shape a high-impact role in a scaling international business.
