Finance Manager - Danville, United States - Wine Importer & Distributors

Description
COMPANY OVERVIEW
This is a leading importer and multi-state distributor. The company utilizes customized management tools to optimize the logistics network for its retail customers.
SUMMARY
Finance Manager (FP&A and Operations)
Lead the built out of finance functions of a private-equity-backed beverage business with an impressive growth trajectory.
As a key leader with the company, the finance manager will partner with the operations team, CEO, and CFO to build and continuously improve operations-finance processes (pricing strategy, margin analysis and improvement, etc.) and FP&A processes (board reporting, KPI tracking, budgeting, forecasting, etc.).
This finance leader will also leverage their background, analytic expertise, and drive for results to partner closely with the business development director and CEO to develop and execute against the strategy to achieve the company's ambitious growth targets.
Success requires an energetic and inquisitive individual who is eager and able to learn the intricacies of importing and distributing wine and spirits, a natural leader who is excited to create and deliver change/improvements, and an analytic and strategic mind with a willingness to get into the details and excitement for solving ambiguously defined business challenges.
While this individual will not immediately have any direct reports, the ability to collaborate with the operations and accounting teams is critical to success.
The finance manager will be a sounding board/thought partner to operations leaders, business development director, and the CFO, and will be trusted collaborator/resource of the CEO.
The candidate must be excited to drive change, put in extra work during busy periods, and promote team comradery and a fun office culture.
Core ResponsibilitiesThe Ideal Candidate Profile
An excellent candidate for this role will have the following skills and experience. If you have some but not all the below, please apply anyway. We are an equal-opportunity employer, prohibit discrimination of any kind, and value diversity and inclusion. We look forward to considering all strong candidates.
