We’re partnering with a well-established, private equity-backed manufacturing company seeking an FP&A Manager to lead financial planning, forecasting, and treasury activities across its U.S. and Mexico operations. Reporting directly to the CFO, this highly visible role will work closely with senior leadership and operations to support business decisions, improve financial visibility, and identify opportunities to enhance performance.

This opportunity is well suited for an experienced FP&A professional or a strong Senior Financial Analyst ready to take the next step into leadership. The ideal candidate brings strong financial modeling skills, budgeting and forecasting experience, and an understanding of manufacturing costs and operational finance.

Why This FP&A Manager Opportunity Stands Out

• Direct exposure to the CFO, CEO, and senior leadership team
• Broad role combining FP&A, treasury, cash flow forecasting, and financial analysis
• Opportunity to influence business decisions and financial performance across multiple manufacturing locations
• Hands-on involvement in budgeting, forecasting, financial modeling, and operational partnership
• Leadership responsibility, including mentoring one direct report
• International exposure supporting operations in Mexico

• Consolidate financial results and analyze performance across multiple manufacturing facilities
• Prepare and analyze facility- and customer-level P&Ls, identifying trends, risks, and opportunities to improve profitability
• Partner with facility leaders to evaluate results, develop budgets, and support operational improvements
• Develop KPIs and enhance financial reporting, analytical tools, and forecasting processes
• Lead and mentor one direct report while collaborating with finance and operational teams across the U.S. and Mexico
• Challenge existing practices and identify opportunities to improve financial processes and business performance

What We’re Looking For

• Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, or a related field
• Experience in FP&A, corporate finance, treasury, or a related financial leadership role
• Strong budgeting, forecasting, and financial modeling experience
• Experience with cash flow forecasting and treasury activities; familiarity with 13- and 26-week cash flow models is highly valued
• Advanced Excel skills, including the ability to build and maintain complex financial models
• Understanding of manufacturing costs, cost accounting, and operational financial performance
• Demonstrated leadership experience through people management, team leadership, or ownership of significant projects
• Strong analytical, critical-thinking, and problem-solving skills
• Ability to communicate financial insights effectively and partner with senior leaders and operations
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment and constructively challenging established practices
• Experience supporting multiple locations or international operations is beneficial
• Manufacturing or industrial experience and familiarity with Epicor ERP are preferred

Compensation & Benefits

• Up to $150,000 base salary, with flexibility for the right candidate
