The company maintains a heavy commercial focus on pipeline development and invests heavily in continuous, world-class product innovation.
...
This is not a high-level, advisory position. If you want to sit back and review the work of others, do not apply. This is a hands-on, execution-focused role for an analytical self-starter.
This exclusive fixed-term contract gives you complete financial ownership of a complex global innovation pipeline. Operating across unmapped market opportunities, unlaunched product categories, and entirely new consumer segments, you will build advanced volumetric models, analyse international pricing chains, and establish shadow P&Ls from scratch. Reporting directly to the Head of FP&A, you will act as the principal finance partner to the global brand leads, directly guiding investment choices that dictate category growth.
The role offers a competitive salary of up to $180,000 + Super for a top-tier commercial analyst. The workspace follows a structured hybrid pattern requiring 3 days in the office, with flexibility required for out-of-hours global touchpoints.
Shadow P&L Ownership: Drive total financial visibility by owning the global Innovation Shadow P&L end-to-end, linking new initiatives directly to master P&Ls to manage portfolio trade-offs.
Advanced Financial Modelling: Lead financial and volumetric modelling across the complete Stage Gate framework (G1 to G5), delivering rigorous size-of-prize analysis and robust assumption validation.
Commercial Challenge: Hold cross-functional category and project teams accountable for inputs, forecasts, and financial accuracy, mitigating risk before capital allocation.
Cannibalisation Analysis: Define, track, and manage complex cannibalisation thresholds and run-rates to evaluate net value impact and guide pipeline sequencing.
Commercial Lever Mastery: Deeply analyse international pricing chains and commercial levers to identify pivots that unlock value during development and post-launch.
Investment Governance: Formulate disciplined OPEX and CAPEX investment recommendations to ensure optimal, value-driven capital allocation.
Stakeholder Partnership: Translate sophisticated financial analysis into clear, practical, and persuasive insights for remote and cross-functional non-finance business partners.
A Bachelor’s degree in Commerce, Finance, Accounting, or a related discipline.
CA or CPA qualification is highly preferred.
Minimum of 4 to 5+ years of heavyweight commercial finance experience, specifically within FMCG, beverages, or multi-national consumer goods environments.
Technical expertise working within Stage Gate or project-based investment frameworks (specifically G1–G5 gating and post-launch evaluation).
Advanced financial modelling capabilities, including scenario planning, volumetric forecasting, and investment appraisal.
Proven track record of influencing cross-functional global stakeholders and remote partners without direct authority.
A robust, results-driven mindset with the ability to uncover data and establish process order in an evolving environment.
A high-visibility finance role with extensive multi-country scope and global portfolio exposure.
Direct ownership of the commercial finance framework for a global brand portfolio.
A competitive salary package of $180k + Super tailored for an execution-focused commercial analyst.
Structured hybrid working arrangements.
If you are a highly action-oriented finance professional ready to drive the global innovation agenda, apply now.
At Randstad, we are passionate about providing equal employment opportunities and embracing diversity to the benefit of all. We actively encourage applications from any background.
