The company also complies with pay transparency and labor laws applicable to all terms and conditions of employment.

What You'll Do:

• Stand up and mature the FP&A function at portfolio companies—aligning monthly/quarterly cadences to production and S&OP cycles; connect plant KPIs to board-level value drivers.

• Build multi-year operating and cash flow models incorporating SKU/margin waterfalls, standard costing, labor/overhead absorption, capex and maintenance capital plans, and footprint scenarios (greenfield/brownfield, consolidation, make-vs-buy). Convert strategy into annual and monthly budgets and rolling forecasts (12–18 months).

• Design executive dashboards and plant scorecards that tie OEE, yield, scrap, throughput, changeover time, schedule adherence, and on-time delivery to revenue, gross margin, EBITDA, and cash. Compare actuals and YTD vs. plan, forecast, and prior year; drive variance narratives and corrective actions.

• Stand up or refine standard costing, BOM/routings integrity, PPV/MPV tracking, labor efficiency, overhead rates, cost-to-serve, and SKU/customer/channel profitability.

• Lead 13-week cash flow forecasting that reflects supply-chain timing, inventory turns, WIP aging, and capex drawdowns; support covenant modeling, borrowing-base dynamics, and liquidity scenarios under volume/mix and commodity volatility.

• Integrate demand plans, constrained supply, and capacity plans into financial forecasts; size working-capital opportunities in inventory (safety stock, MOQ, slow-moving/obsolete) and receivables/payables levers.

• Build business cases for automation, debottlenecking, and energy efficiency; implement gated capex governance and post-implementation reviews.

• Assess current state and evolve analytical tools (Excel, Power BI/Tableau/Looker; SQL/Alteryx a plus). Partner across ERP (e.g., SAP/Oracle/Infor), MES, and data pipelines to ensure plant-to-P&L traceability.

• Contribute to developing and implementing firm-approved, AI-enabled solutions for clients, in accordance with company policies on data protection, intellectual property, and professional standards.

• Stay informed about emerging AI tools and techniques and collaborate with firm leadership to identify compliant opportunities to enhance client solutions and internal processes.

• Develop relationships with portfolio leadership, plant GMs/operations, and PE sponsors; scope and deliver engagements; contribute to proposals and practice growth. Mentor and develop junior team members.

What You'll Bring:

• 9+ years in FP&A and/or restructuring/turnaround, preferably in PE-backed industrial/manufacturing environments (discrete, process, or contract manufacturing). Proven track record partnering with CFOs, COOs, and plant leaders.

• Deep command of income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow; expert at bridging shop-floor metrics to P&L/cash.

• Modeling & analytics: Advanced Excel (including complex models, scenario/sensitivity analysis, and automation with macros); strong dashboarding and data-wrangling skills (Power BI/Tableau; SQL/Alteryx) and EPM tools (Adaptive, Anaplan, OneStream) a plus.

• Manufacturing cost expertise: Standard costing, variance analysis (rate/volume/mix), absorption, PPV/commodity tracking (e.g., steel, resin, energy), and working-capital optimization

• Comfort driving MBR/QBR cycles, plant walks, and S&OP tie-outs; ability to synthesize into executive-ready materials and value-creation tracking.

• Comfort with AI: Demonstrated ability to responsibly explore and adopt firm-approved AI tools to enhance productivity and innovation.

• Continuous Learning Mindset: Openness to learning and applying emerging technologies including AI and automation in alignment with firm policies and client standards.

• Demonstrated ability to lead teams, coach talent, and resolve multi-faceted issues in fast-paced, change-heavy environments.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in accounting or finance

• CPA or CA certification preferred

• Willingness to travel up to 40%; travel varies based on client preferences
