Applicants for the Head of FP&A position at the company should be passionate and committed leaders with a proven track record of success. The role requires a candidate with a heavy finance orientation, and experience in a public company is essential, with a preference for those who have been involved in an IPO. The candidate's background is likely to include experience as a top FP&A leader in a large A&D manufacturing company or as a #2 FP&A leader in a significant manufacturing firm. The company values diversity and is an equal opportunity employer, encouraging individuals from all backgrounds to apply. The focus is on finding a strategic partner who can drive the transformation and scale of the business in line with the investment thesis of the private equity sponsor.
