Andis Company | Sturtevant, Wisconsin | Full-Time, Onsite

Andis Company, a fourth-generation, family-owned manufacturer headquartered in Sturtevant, Wisconsin, is seeking a Vice President of Finance to serve as the primary financial partner to our Co-CEO’s and Owners. Our clippers, trimmers, shavers, blades and accessories reach customers in more than 90 countries, and our global sourcing footprint continues to grow. This is a rare opportunity to step into the seat and learn the business alongside the incumbent prior to their retirement in 2027, joining a team who are treated like family and guided by our Core Values of Innovation, Excellence, Integrity, Respect and Teamwork.

As Vice President of Finance, you’ll direct the overall finance, accounting and reporting functions while serving as a strategic partner across the business — engaging proactively, offering creative solutions grounded in data, and helping drive profitability and accelerate efficiencies. Below are high-level activities, with the intention of sharing additional detail as conversation progresses.

• Direct the overall finance, accounting and reporting functions, and deliver timely results against benchmarks with insight tailored to each audience.
• Oversee manufacturing accounting, including standard costs, variances and the annual cost roll.
• Support operating partners on supply chain cost analysis such as tariffs, freight and inventory.
• Lead cash management strategy, capital expenditures and working capital, and maintain relationships with our audit, banking, insurance and tax partners.
• Establish financial controls, governance and business metrics that support our annual and long-term goals.
• Apply AI and modern tooling to streamline close, reporting and forecasting — and own the controls that govern them.
• Partner with Sales and Marketing on pricing, trade spend and e-commerce/marketplace profitability across our B2B, B2C, distributor, retail and DTC channels.
• Support SIOP and forecasting efforts, partnering with Sales, Operations and Supply Chain to translate demand plans into financial outcomes.
• Lead and develop the finance team.
• Serve on the Executive and Strategic Planning Teams.

• 10+ years of progressive finance experience in a manufacturing or distribution environment, including leading the finance function at a company of similar or greater scale.
• Command of standard costing, manufacturing variance and the annual cost roll.
• Experience in a distribution environment — retail, e-commerce, direct-to-consumer or third-party distributors — with a track record of building profitability models and leading cost reduction strategies that improve business profitability.
• Understanding of global business environments, including imports, duties, tariffs, currency and transfer pricing.
• ERP fluency and genuine technical savvy, with a track record of improving data quality and driving efficiency.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to adapt your message for the plant floor, to the executive team.
• A hands-on, roll‑up‑your‑sleeves approach to improving financial performance.
• Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting or a related field; CPA strongly preferred, and an MBA is welcome but not required.
• Experience in a retail or consumer products environment is a plus.

• Competitive compensation, including base salary and an annual performance‑based incentive.
• Comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, vision, life and disability coverage, a 401(k) plan and paid time off.
• Direct access to ownership and a genuine voice in how the business is run.
• A deliberate transition period alongside the incumbent finance leader before stepping fully into the role.
• The chance to be part of a company with a rich history, a strong culture and a bright future.

For more than a century, Andis has built tools that professionals stake their craft on. As we grow our global reach, we’re looking for a finance leader ready to help shape what comes next. If that sounds like the opportunity you’ve been looking for, we’d love to meet you!
