The Lead – Manufacturing Commercial will act as the strategic finance and commercial business partner for Manufacturing and Plant Operations, while also owning the organization-wide Accounts Payable function. The role is anchored on two strategic pillars: driving enterprise-wide cost optimization with a sharp focus on manufacturing, and strengthening plant-level commercial discipline and payables governance.
This is fundamentally a leadership and stakeholder-orchestration role. The incumbent will lead a team of finance managers, translate organizational priorities into executable plans, and drive outcomes by aligning cross-functional stakeholders — operating through the team rather than delivering transactional work directly.

- Oversee accounts payable process to ensure timely payment of vendors and maintain accurate records.
- Analyze financial data using SAP COGS module to identify trends and areas for improvement in capex expenditure.
