About the role
Fixed-term contract This is a specialist role supporting Mexico implementation of Microsoft Dynamics 365 as we migrate off SAP. Reporting to the Finance Lead for ERP Implementation, you will lead the supply finance workstream, owning the design and delivery of product costing, inventory, freight and inventory provisioning in the new system, and the way cost of goods sold flows through to accurate financial results. For a consumer goods manufacturer, cost of goods sold and inventory are among the largest and most complex areas of the P&L; and balance sheet, so this role carries real weight. You will make sure standard costs, manufacturing variances, landed freight and inventory provisions are designed to calculate and post correctly,
that inventory is well controlled and reconciles cleanly from sub-ledger to general ledger, and that the business has clear visibility of margin. You will work closely with the FD & Controller, the Group finance transformation team at corporate headquarters (CHQ), supply chain and operations colleagues, and external implementation consultants. This is a hands-on delivery and leadership role for someone who knows supply and cost finance from the inside. Your responsibilities

• Design inventory accounting and valuation, ensuring inventory is well controlled, that goods movements post correctly, and that the inventory sub-ledger reconciles cleanly to the general ledger.
• Design the treatment of freight and landed cost, so that inbound freight is captured in product cost and distribution costs are recorded accurately.
• Design inventory provisioning for excess, markdown and obsolescence (EMO), ensuring reserves are calculated and posted in line with policy and give a true view of inventory value.
• Ensure cost of goods sold and margin are designed to report accurately and give the business clear visibility of profitability by product and channel.
• Partner with supply chain, operations and FD & Controller to align the design with how the business plans, makes and moves product.
• Coordinate with the Group finance transformation team at CHQ to ensure consistency with the integral template and international reporting, including the chart of accounts and standard cost methodology.
• Manage external implementation consultants and draw on business-as-usual colleagues for expert insight, and support testing, user acceptance testing, cutover and post go-live stabilization. The experience we're looking for
• Qualified accountant (CPA, CA or equivalent), or equivalent experience, with a strong background in cost accounting, inventory and supply chain finance.
• 5 to 8 years of experience across cost and inventory accounting, ideally within a manufacturing or consumer goods environment.
• Deep, hands-on knowledge of standard costing, manufacturing variances, inventory valuation and provisioning.
• Proven experience contributing to or leading an ERP implementation, ideally Microsoft Dynamics 365, across cost and inventory.
• Strong understanding of cost of goods sold, margin analysis and the link between operations and financial results.
• Experience supervising or leading teams and managing external delivery partners.
• FMCG, CPG or manufacturing experience is highly desirable; private equity exposure is an advantage.
• Strong Excel skills, with Power BI an advantage; are a nice to have. The skills for success Project Management, Financial Reporting, Accounting principles, Financial Analysis and reporting.
