Reports to: Chief Executive Officer (CEO)
Mitsoh is building a new generation of clean-protein foods rooted in tradition and made for contemporary lifestyles. Our products are crafted with a focus on high-quality ingredients, nutritional integrity, and responsible sourcing. As a rapidly growing CPG food company, we operate with world-class manufacturing and food safety standards aligned with GFSI-recognized programs.
We are seeking a hands-on and strategic Director of Finance & Administration to build the financial infrastructure, controls, and administrative systems required to scale Mitsoh into a world-class food manufacturing company and consumer brand.
