Job Description

THIS IS AN ONSITE ROLE WITH THE ABILITY TO WORK ONE DAY REMOTE EACH WEEK

Who we are :

We are Pioneering Industrial Sustainability. Castolin Eutectic is a global provider of surface protection applications and solutions. Since 1906, we have brought innovative products and solutions to our customers, challenging ourselves to extend useful life, reduce maintenance costs, and increase industrial productivity while upholding our deep-rooted belief in sustainability.

We employ a diverse team worldwide in over 25 countries who represent our core values of customer orientation, integrity, respect, team spirit, and trust. Our employees are part of a global family who work together to provide the best solutions for our customers.

Opportunity!

We are seeking a hands-on, proactive analytically minded Director of FP&A to lead our finance function. Have you held a role as a senior manager or controller with a small company and looking for the next step in your career? Here’s your chance! This role is a cornerstone in our regional finance transformation, focused on building a business-oriented, data-driven, and operationally supportive finance organization.

Rather than a traditional accounting profile, we are looking for a commercially curious thinker who can turn financial data into insights and actions. The ideal candidate is hands-on, thrives in a dynamic environment, and can drive process improvement while acting as a strong business partner to the local Vice President and cross-functional teams. This is a high-impact position with clear visibility and ownership across controlling, reporting, business analysis, and performance management.

Position Overview

The Director of FP&A will be responsible for overseeing the organization's financial health by managing financial planning, reporting, budgeting, and risk management to support strategic decision-making and ensure long-term financial stability. The role focuses on building a business-oriented, data-driven, and operationally supportive finance organization. The role is very hands-on, providing solicited and unsolicited advice regarding profitability of business activities and investments through utilizing crucial analytical skills.

What you’ll do :

1. Financial Leadership & Business Partner

Act as the lead finance partner for the US business, providing the Managing Director and functional leaders with clear performance insights and well-argued financial advice.

  • Analyze margins, pricing, and product / customer profitability to support better decision-making
  • Bridge actuals, budget, and forecasts to drive performance transparency and accountability
  • Challenge the status quo with data-driven insights and help management take action
  • Support commercial and operational decisions through business case development and scenario analysis

2. Reporting, Planning & Controlling

Ensure timely and insightful financial reporting, enabling effective control of the business.

  • Own the management reporting process (month-end, forecast, budget), in coordination with local accounting and global consolidation (OneStream)
  • Lead weekly / monthly KPI reporting and review routines with business stakeholders
  • Validate data integrity and ensure alignment between operational and financial metrics
  • Support audit and compliance activities
  • 3. Process & Systems Improvement

    Be the driving force behind process reliability, automation, and better data usage.

  • Support ERP (Infor LN) and reporting tool optimization in alignment with the regional roadmap
  • Standardize recurring reports and automate manual work wherever possible
  • Ensure internal controls are in place and adhered to — without overcomplicating processes
  • Simplify finance workflows to allow more time for value-added analysis
  • 4. Team & Cross-functional Collaboration

    Work seamlessly with other functions and regional teams to support group-wide improvement.

  • Partner with Sales, Operations, and Procurement to track KPIs and drive working capital efficiency
  • Coordinate with regional finance teams in Mexico and Canada for system and process alignment
  • Represent the US business in global finance projects and transformation initiatives
  • What you’ll bring :

  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Business Administration, Economics, or a related field
  • 10+ years of experience in financial management, FP&A, or Controlling — preferably in a manufacturing or B2B environment
  • Proven ability to analyze financial and operational data, build business cases, and translate numbers into actionable insights
  • Experience in financial advisory (e.g., with a Big 4 or strategy / consulting firm) is highly valued
  • Strong data modeling and analysis skills — able to build and own the models yourself
  • Excellent communication and storytelling ability; can synthesize data into a clear and compelling narrative for senior stakeholders, including the Group CEO and CFO
  • Proactive and hands-on mindset : thrives in lean organizations where initiative, autonomy, and execution matter
  • Fluent in English; Spanish is a plus.
  • What we offer :

    Eutectic Corporation offers a competitive compensation program along with a very generous benefit package including :

  • Medical
  • HSA & FSA plans
  • Dental
  • Vision
  • Company paid Life Insurance and Short-Term Disability
  • 401(k) company match
  • Generous Paid Time Off policy & paid holidays
  • Voluntary Life Insurance, Long Term Disability, Accident Insurance, Critical Illness & Hospital Indemnity Insurance
  • Referral bonus
  • Hybrid work
  • Alternate work schedules
