Job Summary

This position reports to the President with a dotted line to the Board of Directors through the Chairman of the Board and works closely with an active Board Executive Committee. The CFO is specifically or indirectly responsible for the following:

  • Change Management. Deliver close change management advice to the board and advise from a commercial and strategic direction as to where the company needs to be focusing.
  • SAP/ERP. Responsible for the identification of new systems and operating procedures. The business is in desperate need of structure and processes and is keen to find a business leader who has come from a major manufacturing FMCG business specifically within Dairy and Juices.
  • Board and External Relations. Support the work of the Board of Directors and all relevant committees. Serve as the intermediary between board and staff. Identify, recruit, and maximize the contributions of new and existing board members.
  • This is a newly created role for a hands-on commercial/strategic CFO who can adapt a change methodology and look at the big picture to move the business from a family-run business into a multinational operating company.
  • The CFO is responsible for directly or indirectly managing the vision and daily operations of the organization, working with the President and Board Members.
  • One of the key parts for this role is to implement manuals, policies, and procedures and work with the President to focus on change management and look at the cash flow within the business to enable the business to develop organically and consider major M&A in the future.
  • Administration. Responsible for overall administration and quality of the organization, its projects, human resources policies and procedures, finances, and facilities.
  • Budgeting. Responsible for the development and management of the annual operating and capital budgets.

Implement all systems necessary (Financial Controls, IT, and HR) to allow for future acquisitions.
  • Change Management. Work with the existing management team to evaluate and assess the current organization and to put in place a clear change management plan. This will have been shared with the organization from top to bottom, ensuring buy-in from all key stakeholders, and the implementation will be on schedule according to the specified timeline.
  • Financial Controls. Evaluate and, if necessary, put in place the effective means by which the organization's resources are directed, monitored, and measured, ensuring the accuracy of financial reporting and protecting the organization's resources, both physical and intangible. These internal control procedures should reduce process variation, leading to more predictable outcomes.
  • Procurement. Assess and improve the current procurement strategies and enhance control over raw material costs to sustain profitability. Propose a plan to the Board of Directors to create a procurement unit if necessary to effectively control the need and size of purchasing.
  • IT & Technical Systems. Oversee the evaluation of the IT and the technical systems, including the systems and technology involved in the manufacturing processes, and approve and implement the necessary changes if necessary for systems such as the ERP System across the entire group.
