• Work with the business to identify and drive opportunities for short, medium and long-term gross margin improvement.
• Ownership of all CoGS budgets/forecasts, produced in partnership with business stakeholders.
• Ownership of month-end CoGS analysis, variance reporting and identification of risks and opps vs forecast.
• Identify and flag wider gross margin risk areas and work with the business to mitigate.
• Produce financial information for business cases around new manufacturers or any other ad-hoc projects

• Have strong excel skills and ability to build/manipulate complex Excel models

And as always, we’re on the lookout for new Hueligans who love a fast-paced environment and are always striving to be their best.
