Manager, Procurement FP&A

Worldpac, LLC is a leading wholesale distributor of original equipment (OE) and premium aftermarket automotive replacement parts, serving professional independent service centers across North America since 1969. Formed in 1995 through the combination of several of the top import parts companies, Worldpac today offers more than 200,000 part numbers covering 41+ import and domestic carlines, supported by an online catalog and fulfillment platform, speedDIAL, that spans over 25 million vehicle applications.

Our network of 320+ strategically located facilities, sophisticated automation, and same-day delivery capability are the backbone of our commitment to delivering The Right Part at The Right Time. The company also includes Worldpac Canada and the Redline Weber division, and supports its customers through the Worldpac Training Institute.

Worldpac has operated as an independent, privately held company since November 2024, when it was acquired by Carlyle from Advance Auto Parts. Standing up as a standalone business has created a significant agenda in procurement, cost management, and financial capability building - and this role sits at the center of it.

Worldpac regards its suppliers as essential team members. Our values commit us to treating suppliers with the same respect we show our customers and associates, to fair treatment and honest feedback, and to frank, fearless, and constructive communication. The person in this role is expected to bring rigor and candor to spend decisions while upholding those supplier relationships.

The Manager, FP&A
- Procurement is the dedicated finance business partner to Worldpac's Procurement, Merchandising. This role owns the planning, forecasting, and analytics for the company's third-party spend - from OE and aftermarket product cost facilities, packaging, IT, and services.

Success in this role depends as much on commercial judgment and credibility with category leaders as on technical FP&A skill.

• Spend planning and forecasting. Own the annual budget and rolling forecast for total third-party spend across product cost, inbound freight and duty, and indirect categories, building bottom-up plans by supplier, category, carline, and cost center in partnership with Category and Sourcing Managers.
• Landed cost and product cost modeling. Model fully landed unit cost for imported OE and aftermarket parts - supplier price, Incoterms, ocean and air freight, duty and tariff, customs brokerage, drayage, and inbound handling - and quantify how changes in any input flow through gross margin by carline and product line.
• Savings pipeline governance. Act as the financial gatekeeper for the Procurement savings pipeline: validate baselines, methodology, and run-rate assumptions for every initiative, and classify benefit as hard (budget-reducing), cost avoidance, margin accretion, or working-capital gain.
• Savings-to-P&L reconciliation. Build and maintain the bridge from reported Procurement savings to actual P&L and budget outcomes, and explain leakage between negotiated and realized benefit to Finance, Procurement, and ownership.
• Sourcing and negotiation support. Provide the analytics behind RFPs, RFQs, supplier line reviews, and renewals - should-cost models, total cost of ownership, bid comparison and scenario analysis, price-volume-mix decomposition, and breakeven analysis on volume commitments and tiered pricing.
• Supplier price-increase defense. Quantify and…
