  • Deep understanding of CPG channel economics (retail, DTC, wholesale, and distribution)
  • Expertise in financial modeling, KPI development, and scenario planning
  • Advanced proficiency with ERP (NetSuite preferred) and modern FP&A tools
  • Exceptional communication and presentation skills — able to distill complex financials into strategic insights for executive leadership
  • Entrepreneurial mindset: comfortable rolling up sleeves, moving fast, and finding creative solutions in an ever-evolving environment

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
