Trade Finance Manager

BUILT ON FLAVOR.  FUELED BY PEOPLE.

What’s it like to work at Kinder’s? Well, there’s a lot of snacking and geeking out over what we all cooked over the weekend. Beyond that, there’s also plenty of hard work. Because we don’t just like flavor, we’re obsessed with it.     

With over 100 products sold nationwide, we’re now a top-five brand in multiple flavor categories at Costco, Walmart, Whole Foods, and more. We’re not your typical CPG company. Privately held and founder-led, we like to think of ourselves as a pirate ship in a sea of cruise ships. Our crew is adventurous and fearless. We chart our own course and chase big ideas to make food unforgettable.  

As we expand globally and approach $1 billion in revenue, we need more smart-and-scrappy, flavor-obsessed people to come aboard. If you’re looking for a place where you can see the real impact of your work... this is it! Every day, you’ll be part of a journey to add flavor to millions of meals and lives. 

About the Role 

The Manager, Trade Finance will serve as the primary partner to the Director of Trade Finance, driving the day-to-day accuracy, analysis, and reporting behind Kinder’s trade investment. This role will partner closely with Sales, Sales Operations, Accounting, Customer Finance, and Sales Strategy & Planning to bring more rigor and visibility to how promotional dollars are spent and what they return. 

This is a highly analytical, technically demanding, builder-oriented role for someone who can operate with real ownership in a function that is still being stood up. Advanced technical and data management skills are core to this role, not a nice-to-have — you’ll be the one building and maintaining the reporting and automation infrastructure this function runs on. You’ll manage trade accrual and reporting and build promotional ROI analysis, helping the organization make sharper decisions even when the available information is incomplete. 

The ideal candidate combines technical expertise, financial rigor, business judgment, and the ability to communicate effectively with both financial and nonfinancial partners — and is comfortable being one of the first people to build a process rather than inheriting one.

What You’ll Do 

Reporting, Automation & Data Management 

• Own the analytics and reporting architecture for trade — dashboards, automated reports, and sales-facing communications — as the volume and complexity of that data grows.
• Build and maintain scalable, automated tools using advanced Excel, Power Query, Power BI, VBA, and approved AI-enabled tools to reduce manual effort and improve accuracy.
• Extract, transform, reconcile, and load data from the TPM system, syndicated data, and other sources into a single, reliable reporting source.
