A family-owned agricultural company in Idaho created a new position for a Strategic Financial Analyst to support the company’s aggressive expansion plans. This remote, yet highly visible position would be responsible for presenting key insights to the senior leadership team and partnering with cross functional teams to launch new products and identify opportunities for process improvements throughout the business.
The challenge was to find a proactive, detail oriented individual with an ownership mindset and advanced modeling skills to determine the ROI on either a greenfield build or facility expansion while leading the due diligence for the acquisition of new facilities and distribution centers across the US. They would play a key role in M&A activities, spearhead product commercialization, and revamp the company’s pricing model.
Within 10 weeks, 3P Partners successfully placed a candidate with 8 years of progressive FP&A experience and a background in the agricultural industry. They were selected for their track record of participating in M&A analysis, partnering with sales and marketing on product innovation, and identifying process optimization in a manufacturing environment. They also proved through their case study that they were capable of absorbing large amounts of data and transferring it into meaningful analysis and key insights for the senior leadership team.Â
