Job Description

BUILT ON FLAVOR. FUELED BY PEOPLE.

What’s it like to work at Kinder’s? Well, there’s a lot of snacking and geeking out over what we all cooked over the weekend. Beyond that, there’s also plenty of hard work. Because we don’t just like flavor, we’re obsessed with it.

With over 100 products sold nationwide, we’re now a top-five brand in multiple flavor categories at Costco, Walmart, Whole Foods, and more. We’re not your typical CPG company. Privately held and founder-led, we like to think of ourselves as a pirate ship in a sea of cruise ships . Our crew is adventurous and fearless. We chart our own course and chase big ideas to make food unforgettable.

As we expand globally and approach $1 billion in revenue, we need more smart-and-scrappy, flavor-obsessed people to come aboard. If you’re looking for a place where you can see the real impact of your work... this is it!Every day, you’ll be part of a journey to add flavor to millions of meals and lives.

• Research, investigate, and resolve invoice, receiving, pricing and payment discrepancies while coordinating with internal business partners.


• Reconcile vendor statements and account balances, ensuring outstanding issues are resolved in a timely manner.


• Support month-end and year-end close activities, accruals, reconciliations, audits, sales tax reporting, and 1099 compliance.

Skills + Experience:

Pay Transparency

As a temporary employee, this role will pay $45 per hour with a 40 hour work week at our Walnut Creek HQ.

SEASONED FOR SUCCESS:

• No two days here are the same.  


• We try to be good team members and good communicators, but we don’t live by hierarchy and structure – everyone is a difference maker here.  


• We make a lot of decisions in the face of incomplete information – our team embraces ambiguity and tries to make good decisions fast rather than great decisions slow.  


• We believe our job is to take smart risk, not to eliminate risk.  


• We believe in growing our skills and becoming a better company with more managerial expertise, but we are an entrepreneurial company at heart.  


• We aren’t trying to be average – we want to do exceptional things, and we are willing to work hard to achieve them.  

BENEFITS THAT BRING MORE TO THE TABLE:

We offer a range of total rewards that may include paid time off, 401k, bonus / incentive eligibility, equity grants, competitive health benefits, and other family-friendly benefits, including parental leave. Kinder’s benefits vary based on eligibility and can be reviewed in more detail during the interview process.

OUR RECIPE FOR BALANCE:

We believe great culture starts with people. We’re a people-first company built on connection, collaboration, and balance. Most of our work happens in the office to spark creativity and community, but we also offer flexibility so team members have the autonomy to work outside the office when needed to support their work-life balance and personal commitments.
