Job Description



Controller

Why This Controller Opportunity Stands Out:

  • Direct partnership with the GM and CFO, providing exceptional visibility and influence across the business.

  • Enjoy broad exposure across accounting, finance, operations, and strategic projects in a lean environment where your contributions are highly visible.

  • Brand-new office space with a private office and a collaborative, low-bureaucracy culture.

  • Support mission-critical industries where the products and services have a meaningful impact on safety and reliability.

  • Take ownership of key initiatives and process improvements without being confined to a narrow job scope.


Key Responsibilities for the Controller:

  • The Controller will lead, mentor, and develop the accounting team while overseeing day-to-day accounting operations.

  • Manage the month-end close process, financial statement preparation, and review of accounting activities.

  • Drive budgeting, forecasting, and financial planning activities in partnership with business leadership.

  • Deliver financial reporting, variance analysis, and pricing insights to management.

  • Coordinate external audit activities and identify opportunities to improve processes and controls.


Qualifications for the Controller:

  • 7+ years of progressive accounting and leadership experience.

  • Manufacturing or construction industry experience preferred.

  • Public accounting professionals with manufacturing client experience are strongly encouraged to apply.
