Job Description



Controller | Manufacturing


Pay: $120,000 - $160,000

Why This Opportunity Stands Out



  • Join a well-established manufacturing organization with a strong reputation and a stable leadership team.

  • Highly visible role with direct exposure to executive leadership and the ability to influence key business decisions.

  • Opportunity to serve as a strategic business partner while still remaining connected to day-to-day operations.

  • Collaborative culture where leadership values new ideas, process improvements, and continuous growth.

  • Strong employee tenure and a team-oriented environment that prioritizes work-life balance.

  • Mix of strategic finance, operational accounting, and leadership responsibilities.

  • Hybrid flexibility available after onboarding and training.


What You'll Do



  • Lead all accounting and financial reporting activities for the organization.

  • Manage month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close processes.

  • Oversee budgeting, forecasting, cash flow management, and financial planning activities.

  • Partner with operations leadership to analyze performance, improve profitability, and support strategic initiatives.

  • Oversee accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll, fixed assets, and general ledger functions.

  • Develop and maintain internal controls, policies, and accounting procedures.

  • Prepare financial statements, management reports, and KPIs for executive leadership.

  • Mentor and develop accounting staff while driving process improvements throughout the finance department.


What We're Looking For



  • Experience as a Controller, Assistant Controller, Accounting Manager, Plant Controller, or Finance Manager.

  • Manufacturing accounting experience strongly preferred.

  • Strong understanding of cost accounting, inventory, standard costing, and financial reporting.

  • Experience managing month-end close and financial statement preparation.


Why Candidates Apply


This is an opportunity to step into a leadership role where you'll have a seat at the table and the ability to impact the direction of the business. The company offers the stability of an established manufacturer, the visibility of a key leadership position, and the flexibility and culture many accounting leaders are looking for today.
