BUILT ON FLAVOR. FUELED BY PEOPLE.

What’s it like to work at Kinder’s? Well, there’s a lot of snacking and geeking out over what we all cooked over the weekend. Beyond that, there’s also plenty of hard work. Because we don’t just like flavor, we’re obsessed with it.

With over 100 products sold nationwide, we’re now a top-five brand in multiple flavor categories at Costco, Walmart, Whole Foods, and more. We’re not your typical CPG company. Privately held and founder-led, we like to think of ourselves as a pirate ship in a sea of cruise ships. Our crew is adventurous and fearless. We chart our own course and chase big ideas to make food unforgettable.

As we expand globally and approach $1 billion in revenue, we need more smart-and-scrappy, flavor-obsessed people to come aboard. If you’re looking for a place where you can see the real impact of your work... this is it! Every day, you’ll be part of a journey to add flavor to millions of meals and lives.

About This Role:

At Kinder's, we're passionate about flavor, quality, and creating exceptional food experiences. As our company continues to grow, so does the scale and complexity of our supply chain across co-manufacturing, logistics, and an expanding SKU portfolio.

The Senior Manager, Supply Chain Finance - Sourcing & Procurement will serve as the lead finance business partner to Procurement and Strategic Sourcing, providing financial leadership across raw materials, ingredients, packaging, components, supplier costs, commodities, and sourcing initiatives.

This senior manager will own planning, forecasting, and performance analysis for material costs while helping Procurement evaluate supplier economics, negotiate from a fact base, and deliver sustainable value. The role will assess inflation and deflation, purchase price variance, co-manufacturer true-ups, tariffs, duties, freight terms, minimum order quantities, and supplier or specification changes.

This position will strengthen accountability for sourcing commitments by establishing consistent methodologies, validating savings, and connecting procurement decisions to COGS, gross margin, working capital, supply continuity, and long-term business performance.

Key Responsibilities Include:

Planning, Forecasting & Material Cost Performance
  • Own the annual budget, rolling forecast, and long-range plan for raw materials, ingredients, packaging, components, and other procurement-driven costs.
  • Develop and maintain commodity, material, and supplier cost forecasts based on market indicators, contracts, purchasing assumptions, demand, mix, and timing.
  • Lead monthly and quarterly performance reviews for purchase price variance, co-manufacturer true-ups, inflation and deflation, and sourcing savings.
  • Explain actual and forecast results versus budget and prior periods, identify root causes, and recommend actions to address risks or capture opportunities.
  • Ensure procurement assumptions and approved savings are accurately reflected in product costs, financial forecasts, and performance reporting.
  • Establish procurement financial KPIs and executive-ready reporting that connect sourcing activity to COGS, gross margin, working capital, and cash flow.
Strategic Sourcing & Supplier Decision Support
  • Partner with Procurement to develop and execute cost-reduction, risk mitigation, and strategic sourcing initiatives.
  • Evaluate supplier pricing, cost breakdowns, contract terms, index mechanisms, sourcing alternatives, and negotiation scenarios.
  • Lead financial analysis of supplier changes, alternate sourcing, dual sourcing, specification changes, and make-versus-buy decisions.
  • Analyze the financial impact of tariffs, duties, freight terms, minimum order quantities, lead times, inventory requirements, and payment terms.
  • Develop…
