Overview
Supply Chain and Operations Finance Analyst (SCOFA) at Mizkan Euro Ltd. This role sits at the intersection of finance and factory operations, delivering financial clarity and decision support to the Middleton site. It focuses on turning real-time factory activity into financial insight and enabling continuous improvement.
What will you be doing?
You’ll be the financial compass for our Middleton site, tracking cost variances, supporting new product launches, analysing stock and yield, and preparing reports that help us see the wood for the trees. You’ll own CapEx, financial controls and everything from daily KPIs to monthly budgeting. More importantly, you’ll help shape structure, clarity and collaboration across the team. We’re documenting processes and embedding smarter ways of working so knowledge isn’t limited to one person.
What kind of person will thrive here?
* You’re not afraid to try; you’re also not afraid to raise your hand when something isn’t working.
* You may not have all manufacturing experience yet, but you enjoy understanding how things work and connecting data to what you see.
* You’ve got a solid finance background and are either part-qualified or actively studying (CIMA/AAT/ACCA).
* You’re a go-getter, not afraid to challenge, collaborate, or bring a fresh pair of eyes.
Whether you’re coming from a site role or stepping into manufacturing for the first time, attitude, initiative, and a genuine curiosity to learn and improve matter most.
The team you’ll join
* A close-knit finance team of three across multiple sites, supporting one another.
* No “that’s not my job” attitudes; a culture of cover, clarity, and collaboration.
* Your manager values transparency, flexibility, and your input; you’ll be empowered to suggest improvements and own your space.
What’s in it for you?
* A development path toward Site Accountant or Manufacturing Finance leadership.
* Mentoring from seasoned professionals (e.g., a qualified accountant who became Factory Manager) as evidence of investment in progression and cross-functional moves.
* A well-balanced workplace; we start early, finish early on Fridays, and respect downtime.
* A company known for low turnover and internal opportunities; many join Mizkan and build long-term careers here.
