What You Will Do

As a Pricing and FP&A Analyst, you will play a key analytical role within the Finance function by supporting pricing strategy, margin modeling, forecasting, and financial planning. This position bridges the gap between Sales, Operations, Accounting, and the CEO by providing data-driven insights that influence margin decisions, production planning, customer pricing, and overall profitability.

This is a critical role for a company experiencing rapid expansion across multiple retail, eCommerce, and B2B channels. The ideal candidate is analytical, business-minded, detail-oriented, and excited to grow into a larger FP&A role over time. Please note that this position is an ON-SITE POSITION ONLY; we do not offer remote or hybrid work options. At this moment, we are not considering candidates who require sponsorship to work.

Key Responsibilities

• Pricing and Margin Analysis:
  • Build pricing models for new and existing B2B and retail deals.
  • Evaluate SKU-level and customer-level margins.
  • Support Sales with price quotes, cost builds, and margin structures.
  • Maintain tools for pricing templates, calculators, and margin frameworks.
  • Identify margin improvement opportunities.
• Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A):
  • Build and maintain revenue, margin, and cash flow forecasts.
  • Assist in annual budgeting and quarterly reforecasting.
  • Perform scenario/"what-if" modeling.
  • Support business case analysis for new product launches, channel expansion, and large customer bids.
  • Partner with Production and Supply Chain on cost changes affecting financial models.
• Business Analytics and Reporting:
  • Build dashboards and KPI reports across channels (retail, eComm, B2B).
  • Analyze customer, SKU, and channel profitability.
  • Provide insights to leadership to support decision-making.
  • Create weekly and monthly reporting packages for the CEO.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration:
  • Work closely with Sales, Operations, Production, Purchasing, and the Controller.
  • Gather cost inputs, volume expectations, and production requirements for pricing.
  • Assist with data pulls and operational financial analysis.
  • Provide analytical support to leadership on strategic initiatives.

If you are a highly motivated individual with a passion for finance and possess the required skills and experience, we invite you to apply for this position. Please submit your resume and a cover letter detailing your relevant experience and qualifications. We look forward to reviewing your application and considering you for this exciting opportunity.
