At Costa Coffee, we are what we craft. We’re reimagining coffee experiences in over 50 countries and counting, as a key part of the Coca-Cola System. Whether you get your coffee in a store, from a machine, at home, or on the go – we’ve got you covered.
The Finance Manager – Green Coffee & Commodities is responsible for leading the finance activities related to green coffee and commodity risk management and procurement. The position plays a critical role in ensuring robust financial governance, risk management, and strategic decision making related to global commodities.
It is accountable for accurately assessing the global exposure to key commodities across production sites and suppliers, coordinating with regional and production finance to ensure this risk is accurately captured in R&Os, and supporting decision making on procurement and risk mitigation, including reporting and ensuring compliance to forward coverage guardrails (where appropriate). The initial focus is green coffee but with the aim that the role builds out processes to other key commodities over time.
Our teams make a difference. Whether that’s working on new tech for the perfect pour, helping our teams grow, creating award-winning campaigns, crunching the numbers, or developing the latest exciting menu item; together, we stir up success.
We may be a global brand, but we haven’t forgotten our roots. That’s where the Costa Foundation and our fantastic community agenda come in. Whatever your role, you can help us change lives in coffee growing communities and help your local community too.
We also want to help you grow in your career through amazing experiences, our apprenticeship scheme, and development programmes. At Costa, you can go beyond the day-to-day.
And as a Finance Manager, there’s never been a better time to join.
So, why Costa?
We didn’t become a global coffee brand by sitting back. When you work here, you join a community that values passion, progression and integrity, with some pretty brilliant perks to sweeten the deal:
• Own a piece of Costa’s success by becoming a share owner in Coca-Cola with our Share Investment Plan (SIP)
• An annual discretionary bonus scheme, based on business results and individual contribution.
• A smart pension that saves you money on tax and national insurance, and matches your contributions up to 10%
• The Costa Financial Support Fund, supporting team members who find themselves in unexpected financial pressure
• 50% discount in all Costa-owned stores, and 25% off in other participating stores
• Private medical cover thanks to our Private Healthcare scheme
• And that’s not all. Explore even more of our perks here: https://bit.ly/costaperks
We’re passionate about being a great place to work, where you can bring your unique self into our mix. We firmly support diversity, equity and inclusion, and continue to work with our teams to shape the future of our culture and values: Disciplined to Deliver, Passion for Progress, Win with Warmth, Courage to Challenge and Trusted Team Players.
What you’ll do:
Being a Finance Manager – Green Coffee & Commodities is about so much more than bringing our coffee to the world. It’s your chance to stir up real success - which means you’ll be:
• Lead financial oversight of green coffee and commodity pricing, supporting procurement decisions with clear forward cost insights
• Own end-to-end coffee pricing processes, ensuring strong governance and alignment across finance, supply chain and procurement
• Assess and manage global commodity risk exposure, embedding accurate forecasting into financial planning (R&O processes)
• Develop and implement scalable risk management processes, systems and guardrails to strengthen financial control and compliance
• Partner cross-functionally to drive strategic decisions, optimise the coffee value chain and unlock cost efficiencies
Who you are:
It’s your unique ingredients we’re interested in:
• Qualified accountant (CIMA, ACA or ACCA) with 5+ years PQE in strong financial planning, modelling and forecasting
• Strong commercial understanding of commodity pricing, risk management and supply chain dynamics
• Highly analytical, able to turn complex data into clear insights and drive informed business decisions
• Confident communicator with strong stakeholder management, influencing cross-functional teams across finance, procurement and supply chain
• Proven ability to operate in a fast-paced environment, managing ambiguity with a proactive, problem-solving mindset
Where you’ll work:
Right now, our Support Centre teams work flexibly, blending home working with in-person time whenever it matters most – whether that’s a team moment, a creative session, or simply coming together to share ideas.
We’re excited to be moving into a new home for our brand in St Albans in January 2027 – an inspiring space from which our Support Centre teams will work three days a week to connect and collaborate in-person to bring our bold ambition to life.
