The posting

It’s a great time to join Velcro Companies!

The Vice President, Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A) is a senior finance leader responsible for driving enterprise‑wide financial planning, forecasting, performance management, and strategic decision support for a multi‑national manufacturing organization. This role serves as a trusted business partner to the CFO, Executive Leadership Team, and regional leadership, providing insight, rigor, and forward‑looking analysis to support profitable growth, operational excellence, and long‑term value creation.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Partner with the CFO and Executive Leadership Team to drive enterprise‑wide financial planning, forecasting, and performance management in support of strategic and operational decision‑making.
  • Lead development of the Company’s long‑range strategic plan, annual operating plan, and periodic forecasts, ensuring alignment with business objectives, capital priorities, and value creation goals.
  • Serve as the primary finance partner to global business, manufacturing, supply chain, and functional leadership, providing forward‑looking insights on performance drivers, risks, opportunities, and trade‑offs.
  • Provide leadership for management reporting, executive analytics, and Board‑level financial materials, ensuring clear, well‑structured, and timely communication of financial performance and outlook.
  • Drive enterprise performance management through robust financial modeling, scenario analysis, and KPI frameworks that enhance transparency, accountability, and decision quality across regions and functions.
  • Collaborate closely with the VP Accounting & Corporate Controller to ensure alignment between management reporting and statutory results, while maintaining clear separation of responsibilities for accounting policy, compliance, and external reporting.
  • Lead continuous improvement of FP&A processes, tools, and systems, including planning platforms, forecasting methodologies, and analytical capabilities, to improve accuracy, efficiency, and insight quality.
  • Sponsor and lead cross‑functional financial, operational, and systems improvement initiatives, particularly those impacting forecasting accuracy, cost structure visibility, productivity, and working capital performance.
  • Perform a leadership role in ad-hoc commercial projects, M&A activity and partnering with the business on transformation workstreams for key countries or product lines.
  • Provide financial leadership and guidance on major business initiatives, including investments, restructuring actions, footprint decisions, and growth strategies, through rigorous financial evaluation and scenario planning.
  • Oversee FP&A involvement in ERP and financial systems implementations, ensuring planning, forecasting, and management reporting requirements are appropriately reflected in system design, data structures, and hierarchies.
  • Apply deep understanding of global manufacturing economics and international business environments to inform planning assumptions and performance analysis, while relying on accounting leadership for statutory, tax, and regulatory execution.
  • Lead, develop and enhance a high‑performing global FP&A organization, fostering strong analytical capability, business acumen, and a culture of partnership, accountability, and continuous improvement.
  • Operate with independence, sound judgment, and executive presence, balancing strategic perspective with disciplined execution in a complex, global operating environment.

Job Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Economics, or a related field; MBA or other advanced business degree strongly preferred.
  • 15+ years of progressive finance experience, including significant senior leadership experience in Financial Planning & Analysis within a multi‑national manufacturing or industrial organization.
  • Proven track record leading enterprise‑wide planning, forecasting, and performance management processes in complex, global environments.
  • Strong understanding of financial statements and accounting principles sufficient to interpret results, assess performance drivers, and ensure alignment between management reporting and statutory outcomes, in partnership with Accounting leadership.
  • Demonstrated ability to translate complex financial and operational data into clear, actionable insights for executive leadership and Boards of Directors.
  • Advanced financial modeling, forecasting, and scenario analysis skills, with the ability to assess strategic alternatives, risks, and opportunities.
  • Strong PowerPoint, Excel, ERP, and financial modeling skills.
  • Experience partnering with manufacturing, supply chain, and commercial leaders to evaluate cost structures, productivity initiatives, working capital performance, and investment decisions.
  • Strong systems orientation with experience leveraging enterprise planning, reporting, and analytics tools (e.g., ERP and FP&A platforms); experience supporting ERP or finance systems implementations preferred.
  • Solid understanding of global business operations and international financial environments, including exposure to IFRS and regional operating models, without direct ownership of statutory or tax execution.
  • Demonstrated experience leading financial, operational, and systems efficiency improvement initiatives that enhance insight, forecasting accuracy, and decision support.
  • Exceptional verbal, written, and presentation skills, with the ability to communicate effectively across all levels of the organization and influence executive decision‑making.
  • Strong leadership presence with the ability to operate independently, exercise sound judgment, and balance strategic perspective with disciplined execution.
  • Highly organized, analytically rigorous, and results‑oriented, with strong project management and prioritization capabilities.
  • Willingness to support a global operating model, including flexible scheduling across time zones and limited travel (<25%) as required.
  • Applicants must be authorized to work in the country of employment without current or future employer-sponsored visa support.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
