Competitive Market Range: $115,000 - $135,000 / year (Commensurate with Experience)

Employment Type: Direct-hire, Full-time, Remote within Metro Atlanta Area

We are seeking an impact-driven Regional Finance Manager, FP&A and Operations Finance professional, to act as a true strategic partner to our leadership teams, rather than someone buried in debits, credits, and ledger work. In this high-visibility role, you will bridge the gap between financial strategy and ground-level execution, driving profitability, optimizing margins, and steering operational performance across a multi-site footprint.

• Own the monthly financial performance analysis, isolating key operational variances and delivering forward-looking insights to regional leadership.
• Drive the annual budgeting lifecycle and rolling forecast models, translating operational strategies into robust financial targets.
• Design, maintain, and refine dynamic financial dashboards and forecasting tools to track vital operational KPIs.
• Collaborate directly with facility and site leaders as a trusted advisor on cost-containment, margin expansion, and revenue optimization.
• Track and manage working capital efficiency metrics, specifically focusing on inventory turns and receivables management.
• Perform continuous margin, pricing, customer segment, and product-line profitability assessments to guide commercial strategy.
• Review initial capital expenditure requests and track ongoing capital allocations for designated territories.
• Deliver fundamental financial acumen training to operational managers, helping them understand how their daily decisions impact the P&L.
• Execute specialized financial modeling, scenario planning, and ad-hoc analyses for enterprise improvement projects.

• Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Economics, Business, or a closely related quantitative field (
  
  Note:
  
  A pure Accounting background is not aligned with this role; we are strictly seeking candidates with a strong foundation in FP&A, business analytics, or operations finance).
• 6 to 10 years of progressive corporate finance experience, with a heavy emphasis on FP&A, operational finance, or decentralized/multi-site environments.
• Demonstrated history of owning P&L management, advanced forecasting, and strategic budgeting workflows.
• Prior exposure to distributed business models or multi-facility organizations.
• Informal coaching, mentoring, or cross-functional leadership experience is considered a strong advantage.
• Advanced Excel capabilities and financial modeling skills, alongside hands-on familiarity with major ERP suites (e.g., SAP or comparable systems) for data extraction and analysis.
• Exceptional interpersonal, written, and verbal communication skills, with a proven talent for translating complex financial data into plain language and actionable strategies for non-financial operators.
• Strong business acumen, problem-solving skills, and the agility to manage overlapping priorities in a fast-moving operational setting.
