About the role
About Us:
Since 1935, we’ve been on a mission to bring a little extra happiness to everyday life and inspire connections over food. We select the finest ingredients the world has to offer, craft premium products made with love, and never settle for shortcuts. We believe that when we share our food, we share a part of ourselves — and that’s the only way we’d put our name on it.
Today, our small family company has grown into a national leader in specialty olives, peppers, and sauces under the leadership of CEO Jeff Mezzetta, and our commitment to quality has never wavered. With an 80-year legacy behind us and a bright future ahead, we’re seeking passionate, driven candidates to help us bring our cherished family traditions to a new generation.
The ideal candidate will have an immediate connection to our Core Ingredients:
- Crunchy Crunchy: We are hungry for excellence.
- Own It: We think and act as an owner – with appetite, initiative, and responsibility.
- Connection: We build authentic relationships that foster trust and open communications.
- Vibrance: We come to work eager and passionate about fulfilling our vision. When we share our work, we share a part of who we are.
Can you architect a data warehouse and then walk into a room of stakeholders and explain what the numbers mean, clearly, confidently, and without jargon? If so, keep reading. Mezzetta is looking for a Business Intelligence Manager who brings genuine technical depth and genuine business judgment in equal measure, someone who can own the systems that power our reporting and be a trusted partner to every person who depends on that data.
Reporting to the VP of IT, you will own our BI function end-to-end. You'll inherit a Power BI and SQL Server-based data warehouse environment and lead the transition from Excel-heavy, manual reporting to reliable, system-generated reporting the whole organization can trust.
Responsibilities
- Drive the shift from manual, spreadsheet-based reporting to structured, system-generated outputs across every business function
- Deliver accurate, timely reporting for revenue, manufacturing, sales, materials, and warehousing
- Own the data warehouse and ETL pipelines; document architecture and improve data quality organization-wide
- Gather and translate business requirements from non-technical stakeholders across Finance, Manufacturing, Sales, and Operations
- Build a BI modernization roadmap with the VP of IT, including cloud and AI-enabled capabilities
- Partner with the IFS Cloud ERP and IT Operations teams on data integration
- Manage and develop the BI analyst function; build the standards and processes that make the function scale
Requirements
- Expert-level SQL, you can navigate, optimize, and architect complex Microsoft SQL Server systems, and you're as comfortable redesigning an aging structure as building something new
- Hands-on Power BI experience, DAX, data models, dashboards, and the judgment to know what good reporting looks like
- Financial acumen, you understand P&L, balance sheet, and revenue reporting, and can use data to inform business planning and performance management
- A proven track record of moving organizations from manual, Excel-driven reporting to disciplined, system-generated outputs
- Real experience gathering requirements from non-technical business users and delivering working data solutions
- The ability to speak two languages fluently: deep technical with the data team, plain business English with everyone else
- 10+ years in BI, analytics, or data management; prior experience leading or developing a BI team
Nice to Haves
- Experience with IFS Cloud ERP or comparable enterprise ERP systems
- Oracle SQL experience
- Azure, Tableau, Qlik, Incorta, or other BI/cloud platforms
- CPG, food manufacturing, or supply chain analytics background
- Python, R, or AI/ML-enabled BI tooling
- Microsoft SQL Server, Power BI, or Azure certifications
