Accounting Manager


Growing Manufacturing Company


Bloomington, MN | $115,000–$140,000 Base + Bonus


Looking for an opportunity to lead accounting within a growing manufacturing company where you'll have the ability to make a visible impact?


We're partnering with a privately held manufacturing company seeking an Accounting Manager to join its growing finance team. This is a highly visible, hands-on leadership role offering broad responsibility across general ledger accounting, financial reporting, month-end close, inventory accounting, process improvement, and staff leadership.


This opportunity is ideal for someone who enjoys working in a collaborative, entrepreneurial environment and wants to play an active role in strengthening accounting processes while partnering closely with operations and executive leadership.


Why This Opportunity Stands Out



  • Highly visible Accounting Manager role with direct exposure to executive leadership

  • Opportunity to lead and mentor members of the accounting team

  • Broad ownership across the accounting function—not a narrowly defined corporate role

  • Growing manufacturing company continuing to invest in its people, systems, and financial infrastructure

  • Ability to make a meaningful impact while helping build scalable accounting processes

  • Long-term growth potential within a stable, expanding organization


What You'll Do



  • Lead the monthly and year-end close process from start to finish

  • Prepare accurate financial statements and supporting reporting

  • Oversee general ledger accounting activities and account reconciliations

  • Supervise, mentor, and help develop members of the accounting team

  • Partner with operations on inventory, manufacturing, and financial reporting matters

  • Coordinate annual audits and support external auditors

  • Improve accounting processes, internal controls, and reporting efficiencies

  • Assist with budgeting, forecasting, and financial analysis

  • Support continued growth by helping build scalable accounting processes


What We're Looking For



  • 5+ years of progressive accounting experience

  • Prior experience in an Accounting Manager, Assistant Controller, Accounting Supervisor, or similar leadership role

  • Manufacturing, consumer products, distribution, or other inventory-intensive industry experience

  • Strong general ledger accounting and financial reporting background

  • Experience leading or supervising accounting staff (direct or indirect)

  • Experience owning or playing a significant leadership role in the monthly close process

  • Inventory accounting experience preferred

  • ERP system experience

  • Process improvement mindset with a collaborative leadership style

  • Strong communication and problem-solving skills


Compensation & Benefits



  • Base Salary: $115,000–$140,000

  • Annual Bonus

  • Comprehensive Benefits Package

  • Excellent long-term career growth opportunity

If you're looking for an opportunity to lead accounting within a growing manufacturing company where you'll have broad responsibility, strong leadership exposure, and the ability to help shape the future of the finance organization, we'd welcome the opportunity to connect.
