Senior Analyst, Finance
About The Position
At Centaurus Farms we develop cannabis cultivation and production facilities and produce high-quality flower and extracted products. We are the parent company operating businesses in Colorado and Kentucky and are exploring opportunities for expansion in Delaware and other locations. Every time we grow something we record what went in, what came out, what was different, was it as good as last time — or better. The next time we grow the same strain we use the data to get it right rather than relying on someone’s memory. There is no shortcut. Plants take their time. We just make sure we learn everything we can every time we cultivate, harvest, or trim something. Craft sets our standards. Consistency sets our schedule. Quality is what we deliver to our customers — every time. All part of our focused vision and what makes us a different strain of cannabis company. You will work directly for the CEO and give him a clear view of what is happening in the business. 14er grows, manufactures, and sells cannabis in Colorado and is launching a medical cannabis operation in Kentucky. The work is whatever needs answering that week: reporting, analysis, models, and projects, across operations, sales, and finance.
Requirements
- Four to eight years of analytical work in financial planning, operations analysis, consulting, or banking.
- Self-direction. You take a loosely defined question, work out what is needed, and come back with an answer and its caveats.
- Comfort with messy data. Our systems do not yet agree with each other. You reconcile first and report second.
- Plain communication. You can put a finding in three sentences for an executive and walk a production manager through the detail.
- Willingness to go to the floor. The numbers make sense once you have seen the grow rooms, the lab, and the packaging line.
- Excel: expert. Power Query, pivot tables, lookups, and multi-tab models that others can audit.
- Pulling data out of operating systems: you are comfortable exporting from accounting software such as QuickBooks, point-of-sale, and inventory systems, and joining the results.
Nice To Haves
- SQL or a reporting tool such as Power BI or Tableau: preferred.
- State track-and-trace (Metrc): a plus.
- Experience with physical products in manufacturing, food, or consumer goods is preferred. Cannabis experience is not required.
Responsibilities
- Run the weekly scorecard. Own the executive team's KPI report: production, yields, sales, and labor for both states.
- Measure performance against the production plan. Operations owns the plan. You report each week how each site performed against it and where forecast demand and planned supply do not match.
- Analyze sales and margin. By product, customer, and channel, including pricing and promotion decisions.
- Cover the parent company as well as the operating businesses. Consolidated results, debt and capital, shared costs, and the case for each new market.
- Build and maintain models. Budgets, projections, and capital projects.
- Take on projects. Whatever the CEO needs answered or fixed, from a one-day question to a multi-week piece of work.
- Make reporting repeatable. Replace manual spreadsheets with reports that draw directly from our point-of-sale, track-and-trace, inventory, and accounting systems.
- Report on inventory without owning it. Operations owns the physical inventory and the Controller owns its value. You use both in your reporting.
