Sr. Manager, Commercial Finance

Ocean Spray is hiring for a(n) Sr. Manager, Commercial Finance! We’re a team of farmers, thinkers, creators, and doers. Whatever your title, whatever your role — it always comes back to this: we’re a farmer-owned co-op where everyone rolls up their sleeves to get the job done. Three maverick farmers started it all — and we’ve been making our own way ever since.

Ocean Spray Cranberries is seeking a strategic and results-driven Senior Manager, FP&A, to join our Commercial US Finance team. In this role, you will serve as a key financial leader and strategic partner to brand marketing, sales, and cross-functional departments. You will own the full P&L, drive financial decision-making, lead analytics that support profitable growth, and provide critical insights that influence key strategic and operational decisions.

The ideal candidate is a proven financial leader with strong analytical rigor, a deep understanding of the CPG industry, and the ability to translate complex data into actionable business insights across the USA business.
