• Lead and develop a team of cost analysts, positioning the Accounting Manager as a coach and builder of future talent
• The Accounting Manager plays a key role in bridging finance and operations, helping plant leadership understand cost drivers and performance gaps
• Strong upward mobility tied to company growth — significant opportunity for the Accounting Manager to advance into broader leadership roles
• Backed by a stable, growing organization with investment in operational improvement and financial insight
• The Accounting Manager will influence decisions that directly impact margins, efficiency, and long-term strategy

Key Responsibilities for the Accounting Manager:


• Evaluate and improve costing methodologies and system effectiveness
• Develop and execute a strategic roadmap for cost accounting enhancements
• Partner with operations to analyze cost performance and identify improvement opportunities
• Lead ERP cost structure alignment and system optimization
• Mentor and develop a team of cost analysts

Qualifications for the Accounting Manager:

• Experience improving costing systems, processes, or ERP functionality
• Proven ability to lead or mentor others within an accounting or finance team
