Required Skills: •This job requires a career CPG finance operator who personally commands trade promotion economics, standard cost and manufacturing variance, syndicated consumption data, marketing efficiency, and DTC unit economics. •We also expect this leader to run an AI-leveraged function. BRCC is standardized on Claude; the VP is accountable for using it directly, embedding it in the team's standard work, and governing where it is and is not appropriate. Analytical capacity is expected to grow faster than headcount. •Own the Long-Range Plan and Annual Operating Plan across every channel, customer, and function — modeling, scenario construction, and sensitivity analysis supporting strategic direction and capital allocation. •Own the monthly and quarterly reforecast cycle with disciplined risks-and-opportunities tracking and a clean walk from prior forecast to current view; establish forecast accuracy as a measured discipline. Partner with Sales, Marketing, and Supply Chain on the demand forecast (IBP / S&OP) and convert unit plans into financial plans. •Own the consolidated rolling cash flow forecast with weekly liquidity visibility; model working capital end to end — green coffee commitments, inventory, receivables, deductions, payables — and drive cash conversion improvement against quantified targets. •Model capital structure scenarios, covenant headroom, and downside liquidity; own the capex plan and post-spend return validation. •Trade Promotion Optimization, Pricing & Channel Finance •Plan and govern the trade budget with an ROI mindset: pre-event modeling, post-event measurement, and event-level profitability by customer; serve as business owner and super user of trade promotion management. Qualifications: •Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, or Economics; MBA and/or CPA preferred. Expert-level financial modeling in Excel; working experience with ERP (NetSuite). •Minimum of 15+ years of experience in progressive finance, spanning public and private company environments and both large-scale and small or high-growth organizations. •Consumer packaged goods experience is required. Food and beverage strongly preferred. Demonstrated leadership of an FP&A function with direct people-management responsibility. •Demonstrated, hands-on use of AI in a finance function — not conceptual interest. Candidates must be able to describe specific work they have produced with an AI assistant, what it accelerated, and where they caught it being wrong. Experience with a comparable platform is acceptable; unwillingness to work this way is not. •Judgment on where AI is appropriate and where it is not — data handling, materiality, and verification required before AI-assisted output supports a Board, audit, or public disclosure. Ability to operate with incomplete information, form a view, and defend it to the CEO, CFO, and Board. •Public company experience supporting SEC reporting, guidance, and internal controls. Multi-channel experience — FDM/retail, club, DTC, marketplace, foodservice — in a commodity-exposed business where input cost volatility drives margin planning. •Direct experience with Claude in a business setting — Claude for Excel, document and contract review, or agentic workflows — and a track record of deploying AI across a team and measuring the productivity result. •BI proficiency (Power BI, Tableau) and comfort in the underlying data; prior experience integrating an acquisition or standing up finance in an acquired business. •Position Type/Expected Hours Of Work/Physical Requirements •This is a full-time position and may require long hours and may require weekend and nights work per events.
