What you’ll be doing:
* Partnering with operational leaders to drive end-to-end supply chain performance
* Leading budgeting, forecasting and scenario planning across manufacturing and operations
* Owning product costing, inventory analysis, working capital and productivity reporting
* Evaluating capital projects, investment cases and post-implementation returns
* Driving smarter systems, reporting automation and process improvement
* Leading and developing a small high-performing finance team
What we’re looking for:
* Proven experience in commercial finance / business partnering within FMCG, manufacturing or a fast-paced environment
* Strong understanding of costing, inventory, logistics and operational KPIs
* Commercial mindset with the confidence to challenge and influence senior stakeholders
* Excellent modelling, planning and analytical capability
* Experience with ERP / BI tools and strong Excel skills
