Description




Corporate Controller
Ready to step into a high-impact Corporate Controller role where you'll own the full accounting function, lead strategic financial reporting, and partner directly with executive leadership? This is an excellent opportunity for a manufacturing accounting leader looking to drive results, influence business decisions, and lead a tenured finance team within a stable organization.



Salary: $140,000-$160,000

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:


• Lead the entire accounting and tax function with direct visibility to executive leadership.
• Influence company-wide financial strategy through budgeting, forecasting, reporting, and cash management.
• Manage a broad scope including AP, AR, Payroll, General Ledger, Tax, Compliance, and Internal Controls.
• Opportunity to lead and develop an established accounting team while shaping future processes and best practices.
• Play a key role in business performance analysis and strategic decision-making.
• Join a manufacturing organization where finance has a direct impact on operational success.
• Gain exposure to corporate-level reporting, audits, treasury management, and risk mitigation initiatives.
• Drive continuous improvement within accounting operations and internal control environments.
• Work closely with global and corporate stakeholders on reporting, compliance, and financial planning activities.
• Stable leadership opportunity with long-term career growth potential.

Key Responsibilities for the Corporate Controller:


• Lead all accounting operations including AP, AR, Payroll, General Ledger, Tax, and Cash Management.
• Oversee month-end close activities and ensure accurate financial reporting within established timelines.
• Direct budgeting, forecasting, financial planning, and variance analysis processes.
• Coordinate external audits, tax filings, and regulatory compliance requirements.
• Manage internal controls, risk mitigation efforts, and continuous process improvement initiatives.
• Lead, mentor, and develop accounting and finance personnel while managing departmental objectives and performance.

Qualifications for the Corporate Controller:


• Bachelor's degree in Accounting required.
• 10+ years of cost accounting experience within a manufacturing environment.
• 7+ years of accounting leadership experience managing AP, AR, Payroll, General Ledger, and CAPEX functions.
• 7+ years of SAP experience; CPA and Master's degree preferred.
