About the role:

Join Carlsberg Britvic as a Supply Chain Financial Modelling & Strategy Manager and play a pivotal role in shaping how our end‑to‑end supply chain decisions are made. Using advanced financial modelling and data‑led insight, you’ll uncover true cost‑to‑serve, influence major network and investment decisions, and partner with senior leaders across Supply Chain, Finance, and Commercial teams. This is a unique opportunity for a commercially curious, analytically sharp professional to drive meaningful change in a business built on iconic brands, scale, and ambition.

If you are interested in joining our journey, we are now recruiting for a Supply Chain Financial Modelling & Strategy Manager. Reporting to the Head of Network Strategy & Efficiency, this role will play a key part in our success journey, and you will have the opportunity to be involved in the following:

Role Responsibilities:

• Develop and maintain end-to-end supply chain cost models. Building, owning and continuously reviewing and improving complex cost to serve models across warehousing, transport, and route to market, providing true cost by customer, product and channel.
• Convert complex operational data into clear financial outputs that highlight cost drivers, margin impact, and improvement opportunities across the supply chain.
• Deliver high-quality financial modelling to support network changes, volume shifts, customer behaviour changes, capital investments, automation initiatives, and new business tenders.
• Operate as a trusted analytical partner, working closely with Supply Chain, Finance, and Commercial leaders to influence decisions through evidence-based insight rather than ownership of operational processes.
• Partner with Finance to support with budgeting, forecasting, and medium-term planning, enhancing forecasting accuracy and supply chain financial discipline.
• Translate operational productivity into clear cost-per-unit metrics (e.g. pallet, case, keg, delivery), enabling consistent performance tracking and financial transparency.
• Provide financial challenge and governance on change initiatives by ensuring all supply chain transformation and change proposals are supported by credible, well-structured financial evidence, constructively challenging assumptions where required
• Work closely with depot and operational teams to validate data inputs and assumptions, ensuring models accurately reflect real-world operations and constraints.
• Support operational stakeholders understand key cost drivers and financial levers, improving commercial awareness without directly managing teams or owning operational processes.

Experience and Key Attributes:

• Experience in complex cost model building, developing sophisticated cost-to-serve models that clearly evidence true operational cost and profitability.
• Experience working within Supply Chain for an FMCG
• Knowledge and understanding of financial principles, such as P&L mechanics, cost allocation, margin analysis.
• Ability to persuade, engage, and support senior stakeholders through data-led insight.
• Proficient with IT tools, including advanced use of Excel and Power BI
• Methodical and detail-oriented, skilled at financial modelling and scenario analysis, organising complex datasets while delivering clear, actionable insights.
• Commercially curious and comfortable challenging assumptions. Naturally inquisitive, able to question operational and financial inputs constructively, and focused on value creation rather than process ownership.
