Purpose

Support Newmar’s financial planning and analysis (FP&A) function by turning financial and operating data into clear insight for better leadership decisions. Develop budgets, forecasts and analysis that show how demand, production, product mix and cost shape our results. Work closely with Finance, Operations, Sales and other teams to help Newmar grow profitably and meet Winnebago Industries expectations.

Key Responsibilities

Build and maintain models for the annual budget, rolling forecasts and long-term plans. Gather input from department leaders and test key assumptions such as retail and wholesale demand, dealer inventory, backlog and production rates.

Prepare monthly business review materials. Explain results against budget, forecast and prior year, including changes in volume, price, mix, material, labor, overhead and warranty. Show how results tie to dealer activity, backlog and the ups and downs of the RV market.

Analyze profitability by model, product line and option, and support pricing, incentive and product decisions.

Track key measures such as margin, cash, working capital, production rates and forecast accuracy, and flag risks and opportunities early.

Build business cases and return on investment analysis for capital projects, new products and process improvements.

Work with Accounting to tie forecasts to actual results, support the month end close and keep data consistent across reports.

Lead analysis projects from start to finish with little direction, from framing the question to recommending next steps.

Prepare reporting and analysis for Newmar leaders and Winnebago Industries corporate finance, and present findings and recommendations directly to the CFO and leadership team. Perform other related duties as assigned.
