• Identify financial risks and opportunities and translate them into clear, actionable recommendations
• Improve forecast accuracy, analytical consistency, accountability, and planning speed

Operational & Cost Analytics

• Analyze warehouse, delivery, fleet, merchandising, labor, payroll, and operating costs
• Connect operating drivers such as cases, labor hours, routes, mileage, and productivity to financial outcomes
• Partner with operating leaders to explain variances, identify root causes, and quantify improvement opportunities
• Develop cost and profitability views that support service, network, investment, and resource-allocation decisions

Commercial & Margin Analytics

• Analyze revenue, gross margin, COGS, pricing, discounting, product mix, freight, supplier programs, and customer profitability
• Develop clear margin bridges across suppliers, brands, packages, channels, customers, and markets
• Partner with sales and commercial leaders on pricing, customer terms, supplier commitments, and margin improvement
• Evaluate whether programs and investments delivered the expected financial results

Strategic Decision Support

• Lead financial analysis for operating-model changes, technology investments, acquisitions, supplier transitions, and productivity initiatives
• Build decision-ready business cases with clear assumptions, cash flow, sensitivities, costs, benefits, and risks
• Track approved initiatives against savings, growth, timing, capital, and return commitments
• Present complex analysis as concise choices and recommendations for executive and operating leaders

Team Leadership

• Lead, coach, and develop the FP&A team through clear ownership, feedback, cross-training, and development planning
• Establish consistent analytical methods, model governance, documentation, and quality standards
• Build a culture of curiosity, constructive challenge, business partnership, and accountability

What We're Looking For:

Required

• Bachelor's degree in accounting, finance, or a related field.
• Progressive accounting leadership experience includes ownership of the monthly close, financial reporting, external audit, internal controls, and team leadership.
• Experience improving accounting processes, clarifying roles, and leading change in a multi-location, inventory-intensive, distribution, manufacturing, or consumer-products environment.
• Demonstrated command of U.S. GAAP and the ability to translate accounting requirements into practical business processes and controls

Preferred

• CPA license or active CPA credential
• Experience in beverage distribution, alcoholic-beverage distribution, Coca-Cola bottling or distribution, wholesale distribution, or a similarly regulated route-to-market business
• Experience with enterprise resource planning, warehouse or route-accounting systems, financial consolidations, and close-management or account-reconciliation tools
• Experience supporting acquisitions and financial systems implementations

Knowledge, Skills & Abilities

• Advanced financial modeling, forecasting, budgeting, variance analysis, cost analysis, and management-reporting capability
• Practical understanding of beverage economics, including cases, packages, supplier and brand mix, pricing, discounts, deposits, freight, rebates, depletion incentives, inventory, and route-to-market costs
• Ability to connect warehouse, fleet, labor, sales, and service drivers to gross profit, operating expense, working capital, cash flow, and EBITDA
• Advanced Microsoft Excel and data-analysis skills; strong capability with business-intelligence and enterprise planning tools
• Executive-level communication, presentation, and storytelling skills that convert complex data into clear choices and actions
• Proven ability to develop people, delegate ownership, manage competing priorities, and influence leaders without direct authority
• Strong judgment, intellectual curiosity, attention to detail, and willingness to challenge assumptions constructively

Why Join Odom?

• Build and shape an enterprise FP&A capability with meaningful executive visibility
• Influence strategic, commercial, and operating decisions across the company
• Work with complex, real-world data across sales, warehouse, delivery, fleet, labor, and finance
