Position Summary:

The Costing Manager is a key leadership role within Operations Finance, responsible for owning and governing the end-to-end finance bill of material and product costing process for OSI North America.

This individual will establish and enforce the standards, policies, and procedures that ensure BOM accuracy, product costing integrity, and process consistency across all North America facilities.

A critical nuance of this role is that OSI maintains two parallel sets of bills of material.

The first is owned by R&D and Operations and is managed through SAP Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), reflecting the product specification and formulation view.

The second is the finance BOM, owned by Finance and Operations Accounting, which drives standard costing.

The role requires the judgment to ask the right questions, identify gaps that others may overlook, and make informed recommendations.

• Process Team - Oversee definition of production capabilities; validate recommended...
