Company mission
HelloFresh is on a mission to change the way people eat, forever! They're collectively disrupting the food supply chain and the multi-trillion-dollar food tech industry.
Role
Who you are
- 3-5 years of relevant work experience in an advanced analytical capacity (preparing complex reports, budgets, and data visualizations), and/or 2-3 years of management consulting experience
- Undergraduate degree in Supply Chain, Business, Math, Engineering, Data/Computer Science, or other relevant area of study
- Proficiency with SQL to independently query, validate, and maintain production data pipelines and reporting
- Advanced fluency in spreadsheet modeling and data analytics (Excel and/or Google Sheets); experience automating within spreadsheets (e.g. Apps Script) is a plus
- Experience with a high-level programming language (e.g. Python) and data visualization tools (e.g. Tableau) is a plus
- Familiarity with cost accounting, budgeting, or procurement/supply-chain analytics – or a strong interest in developing this understanding
- Fluent in English
- A natural owner – You are reliable and thoughtful in managing your responsibilities, you care about the outcome and quality of your work, and you earn the trust of your colleagues
- Data-driven – You can organize, analyze, and synthesize ambiguous, unstructured datasets into clear, actionable insights that inform high-stakes business decisions
- Intellectually curious – You have an insatiable desire to understand how things work and why, and you consistently challenge the status quo
- Detail-oriented – You possess strong organizational skills and a methodical approach to all your work, especially where accuracy has downstream financial impact
- Agile and organized – You thrive in fast-paced, dynamic environments, can multitask across concurrent recurring cycles, and are comfortable working autonomously
- A self-starter – You are highly motivated and eager to take on new projects without knowing exactly what you'll uncover
- An excellent communicator – You can explain complex, technical information to a variety of audiences, including senior leadership
What the job involves
- We're hiring a Specialist to join our Supply Chain Analytics team, within the broader NA Supply Chain Enablement and Insights organization
- This role sits at the intersection of procurement, cost reporting, and budgeting – owning the pricing and budget analytics that Procurement and Finance leadership rely on to make high-stakes decisions on material costs, supply risk, and spend
- In order to continuously improve and evolve, we work cross-functionally across the business from procurement to purchasing to finance, and leverage a modern tech stack to automate and improve our tools
- To succeed, you'll need a strong sense of ownership, sharp analytical and organizational abilities, and a genuine interest in turning ambiguous, high-complexity procurement data into insights and decisions leadership can trust
- Own and manage the ingredient static-pricing process – managing the quarterly SKU pricing refresh and ensuring pricing updates flow accurately into downstream systems, so new and relaunched SKUs get accurate cost estimates without holding up menu lock
- Build and maintain ingredient and packaging budget files across the annual and mid-year budget cycles, including variance analysis and risk/opportunity reporting for leadership
- Own weekly tariff and PO-price-variance reporting that feeds the COGS/weekly business review narrative for procurement and finance stakeholders
- Maintain the SKU Supply Health Scorecard and related data feeds that support menu-lock review and vendor/allocation decisions
- Partner cross-functionally with Procurement, Finance, and Planning teams to keep pricing, budgeting, and inflation-tracking processes accurate and running on cadence
- Continuously improve and automate manual, spreadsheet-based processes as the team's tooling and tech stack mature
- Proactively identify and communicate actionable, data-driven insights to internal partners, including senior and executive leadership
Our take
The food space has seen significant disruption in the last few years, whether it's the rapid expansion of takeaway delivery, online groceries or meal boxes. Consumer tastes are changing and there has been lots of innovation to try and get quality food in front of people more easily. HelloFresh is one of the drivers of that trend.
On the back of a boom in subscriptions during the pandemic, HelloFresh secured its place in the new food market. However, the cost-of-living crisis has meant that the company and its peers have faced dwindling subscriptions, resulting in layoffs and a need to refocus towards a more sustainable future for the business.
That said, HelloFresh still benefits from being a leader in the sector and from its B Corporation status - properties that mean it remains a top option for consumers who want to try meal kits. Only time will tell if the company can sustain its success moving forwards, at a time when its product, however enticing, is becoming less affordable for the general public.
