Job description

ABOUT Slate

Slate is a new US company that is exploring development in the electric vehicle space.

Who We Are Looking For

Slate is looking for a Finance Manager of Manufacturing FP&A, who will lead the collaboration with the manufacturing team to launch our testing and production build operations. As the Manufacturing Finance Manager, you will lead the strategic financial planning of our manufacturing division. You will work closely with cross-functional teams to optimize capital spending, and efficient resource allocation. This is a strategic financial planning role separate and distinct from a plant controller role. The ideal candidate will have strong people skills, analytical abilities, and the ability to work in a fast-paced environment.

Applicants must be authorized to work for any employer in the U.S. We are unable to financially sponsor or take over sponsorship of an employment Visa for this opportunity currently

What You Get To Do

Lead the cross-functional effort (Finance, Manufacturing Engineering, and Purchasing) to optimize the trade-off between manufacturing capex and labor cost; strong performers in the role will not only excel at capital-labor substitution analyses but will also excel at helping the cross-functional team find creative ways to reduce capex.
Keep meticulous tabs on manufacturing capex, with the ability to narrate key differences from one version of planned capex to any other version.
Plan the labor content (conversion cost) of the product to a detailed level and maintain the plant labor model.
Cultivate deep familiarity with the integrated manufacturing capex plan—the full equipment list, what each piece of equipment is used for and where it fits in the plant layout; similarly, this role will also need familiarity with each workstation, which actions are performed at each station, and how many assembly operators are needed at each station and why.
Lead budgeting, forecasting, and financial planning processes for the manufacturing division.
Analyze manufacturing costs, variances, and profitability to identify areas for improvement and cost-saving opportunities.
Collaborate with production, purchasing, and engineering to optimize inventory management and controls.
Act as a liaison between operations, finance and accounting on all issues which have a financial impact including capital expenditures, labor & overhead, and logistics.
Review and verify work in process and finished goods inventories for month/quarter/year-end reporting.
Develop and manage cost and financial controls in accordance with financial regulations, accounting principles, and industry standard processes.
Coordinate the accurate input of purchase orders, invoices, costing data into the ERP system (NetSuite) and flag corrective action(s) on a timely basis.
Assist the FP&A team in month/quarter/year-end financial reporting and audits pertaining to plant operations.

What you bring to the team:

Bachelor's degree in finance, accounting, or a related field; MBA or CPA preferred.
Proven experience in finance or accounting roles within the manufacturing industry, preferably in automotive or related sectors.
Strong understanding of manufacturing processes, cost accounting principles, and financial analysis.
Experience in a manufacturing or plant finance role.
Familiarity with inventory management and valuation.
Diligent with strong attention to accuracy.
Ability to manage a team and collaborate effectively with cross-functionally.
Experience with ERP systems, preferably NetSuite.
Ability to adapt and thrive in a dynamic, start-up environment.
