WORK ENVIRONMENT:

The work environment characteristics described here are representative of those an employee encounters while performing the essential functions of this executive‑level finance role.

The Vice President of Finance primarily works in a professional office setting with extensive use of computers, ERP systems, financial reporting platforms, BI tools, and communication technology. The role requires frequent collaboration with Finance, Accounting, IT, Operations, Sales, Grower Accounting, and Executive Leadership.

While the position is office‑based, periodic travel and onsite presence are required to support financial analysis, operational reviews, IT initiatives, KPI validation, system enhancements, and strategic decision‑making. This includes scheduled visits to processing plants, the Value‑Added facility, field pack operations, and grower/harvest locations, particularly during seasonal or high‑volume periods.

Essential duties regularly include desk‑based work such as financial analysis, modeling, reporting, system oversight, pricing analysis, meetings, documentation, and strategic planning. Onsite visits may require walking, standing, climbing stairs, and engaging directly with operational teams to understand workflow, evaluate data integrity, observe production processes, and support continuous improvement.

The position may involve infrequent lifting (up to 25 lbs.) and occasional activities such as climbing, balancing, stooping, kneeling, or crouching when touring operational sites. During field, plant, or facility visits, the employee may encounter exposure to mechanical equipment, active production areas, elevated work surfaces, cold environments, and outdoor weather conditions including heat, wind, and dust.

EQUAL EMPLOYMENT EMPLOYER:

The Company provides equal employment opportunities to all employees and applicants for employment without regard to sex, race, color, religion, marital status, national origin, age, sexual orientation, disability, veteran status, pregnancy, or any other factor that may be protected by law.
