Job Description
Assistant Controller
Salary: $125,000 - $145,000
Ready to step into a high-impact finance leadership role with direct CFO exposure? This is an excellent opportunity for a hands-on manufacturing finance professional to broaden their influence across operations, cost accounting, inventory management, and strategic decision-making.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
• Direct partnership with the CFO and senior leadership team
• Opportunity to serve as the second-in-command within the controlling function
• High visibility across Production, Supply Chain, Procurement, and Operations
• Broad scope covering FP&A, cost accounting, inventory management, and financial reporting
• Ability to influence key business decisions through data-driven financial insights
• Leadership opportunity with responsibility for supporting and guiding the controlling team
• Exposure to a manufacturing environment where finance plays a critical role in operational performance
• Opportunity to drive process improvements, strengthen controls, and enhance reporting capabilities
• Stable leadership track with succession and advancement potential
• Strategic role that combines financial expertise with operational partnership
Key Responsibilities for the Assistant Controller:
• Support annual budgeting, forecasting, and long-range financial planning processes
• Analyze financial results, cost performance, and operational trends to provide actionable recommendations
• Monitor inventory, raw materials, working capital, and excess/obsolete inventory performance
• Prepare and review management reporting, variance analysis, and financial presentations
• Support internal controls, audit activities, and financial compliance initiatives
Qualifications for the Assistant Controller:
• Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Business Administration, or related field
• 5+ years of progressive experience in controlling, finance, cost accounting, or manufacturing finance
• Strong background in budgeting, forecasting, financial analysis, management reporting, and cost accounting
• ERP experience required; SAP or similar systems preferred
