• Produce accurate, timely financial reporting in compliance with Kohler policies.
• Prepare accruals, prorates, and balance sheet reconciliations; review monthly spend for accuracy and trends.

Business Partnership & FP&A

• Partner with department leaders to provide financial analysis, decision support, and OPEX tracking and controls.
• Support New Product Development (NPD) with business cases, profitability analysis, project financials (ACTs, WBS elements), and approvals.
• Own department expense tracking and headcount planning across development projects, advertising, and marketing.
• Support non‑SAP entities with FP&A aligned to Kohler finance processes.

Forecasting, Planning & Insights

• Partner with leadership on monthly forecasts and the annual operating plan.
• Own system loads for income statement and balance sheet forecasts.
• Prepare and present materials for monthly and quarterly business reviews, including variance analysis and follow‑ups on unexpected charges.
• Provide financial support for North American Sauna and non‑SAP companies.

• Lead finance process improvements and standardization across the Health & Wellness portfolio.
• Perform ad hoc analysis and contribute to special projects as the business continues to scale.
