• Build promo ROI frameworks, spend guardrails, and post-event reporting that drive sharper trade decisions.

• Facilitate the full trade lifecycle in partnership with cross-functional teams: Strategy (how trade is built and prioritized), Sales (how trade is funded and deployed at the customer), and Accounting / AR / AP (how trade is accrued, cleared, and paid).

• Lead promo event performance reporting and post-event evaluation, surfacing insights that shape future trade plans and spend prioritization.

Revenue Growth Analytics & Recommendations

• Develop revenue growth recommendations grounded in pricing, elasticity, assortment, mix, and promotional performance analysis.

• Partner with Sales and Sales Strategy on customer tracking, monitoring, and promo calendar design.

• Lead customer-, channel-, and SKU-level profitability analysis to inform mix and investment decisions.

• Quantify the financial impact of commercial opportunities and present trade-offs clearly to senior stakeholders.

• Translate analysis into clear recommendations that guide prioritization, trade-offs, and improved business outcomes.

Cross-Portfolio & Cross-Functional Partnership

• Lead integrated RGM thinking across the brands within the portfolio, identifying where to harmonize approach and where to differentiate.

• Partner with FP&A on topline forecast scenarios, AOP/LRP planning, and trade-to-forecast translation.

• Partner with Marketing and Innovation Finance on innovation commercialization, price-pack decisions, and launch economics.

• Stay connected to broader FLO enterprise RGM direction, ensuring portfolio execution aligns with enterprise capability and governance standards.

Capability Building

• Build repeatable processes, decision tools, and reporting the team can manage and execute against.

• Establish KPI frameworks and governance routines (pricing committee, trade investment review) that shift the business toward profit, ROI, and contribution margin as primary success measures.

• Coach Sales and Finance partners on RGM principles and elevate analytical rigor across commercial conversations.

Position Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Finance, Economics, Business, or related field required; MBA or advanced analytics credential a plus.
• 8-12 years of progressive experience in Revenue Growth Management, Commercial Finance, Pricing Strategy, or Trade Strategy within CPG (food & beverage strongly preferred).

• Experience implementing or optimizing a TPM platform (Confido, Exceedra, UpClear, Blacksmith, or similar) and building the surrounding process discipline.
• Strong command of pricing and elasticity modeling, gross-to-net P&L mechanics, and trade ROI evaluation.
• Working knowledge of trade accounting mechanics, including accruals (event-based preferred), deductions, AR/AP flow, and reconciliation.
• Advanced Excel and financial modeling, with proficiency in syndicated data (Nielsen / Circana / SPINS) and TPM tools.
• Familiarity with topline forecasting at account/event level and trade-to-forecast translation.
• Demonstrated track record building RGM capability (frameworks, tools, or processes) within a growing or transforming commercial organization.
• Executive presence with the ability to influence, challenge, and align cross-functional stakeholders while building credibility across functions and leadership levels.
• Agile and adaptable leader comfortable operating through ambiguity, shifting priorities, and increasing organizational complexity.
