About the Role
We are looking for a seasoned finance professional to serve as the Finance Business Partner for our Chocolate Category.

- Act as a trusted advisor to the Category Head and cross-functional leadership on all financial and commercial decisions
- Co-create the Annual Contract (AC) and Long-Range Strategic Plan (LRP) for the Chocolate portfolio
- Lead scenario planning, business modeling, and "what-if" analyses to evaluate recent opportunities, product launches,
and market expansion strategies
Revenue & Commercial Finance
- Partner with Sales and Trade Marketing to design and evaluate trade spend, pricing strategies, and promotional effectiveness
- Analyze channel and customer profitability to optimize the route-to-market strategy
- Drive Revenue Growth Management (RGM) initiatives including price-pack architecture, mix optimization, and elasticity modeling
Cost & Supply Chain Finance
- Collaborate with Procurement and Supply Chain teams to manage input cost volatility (cocoa, sugar, dairy, packaging) and drive cost-saving programs
- Own the standard costing process, manufacturing variances, and conversion cost optimization
- Evaluate make vs. buy decisions, co-packing arrangements, and capacity investment proposals
Innovation & Portfolio Management
