Senior Accounting Manager
Salary: 120k-150k

Ready to step into a high-impact accounting leadership role in a growing manufacturing environment? Join a company where you’ll drive financial accuracy, lead a team, and influence business decisions at scale.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

  • High-visibility role partnering directly with operations and supply chain to influence key business decisions

  • Opportunity to lead and develop a team while shaping accounting processes and best practices

  • Strong mix of hands-on accounting and strategic project work (ERP, automation, process improvement)

  • Exposure to manufacturing and cost accounting in a well-established, growing organization

  • Ability to modernize systems and drive efficiencies through technology and automation

  • Leadership access and the chance to act as a trusted advisor on complex accounting matters

  • Stable, privately held company with a long-standing reputation and clear mission

  • Competitive total rewards package including bonus, profit sharing, and strong benefits

  • Career growth potential as the company continues to expand


Key Responsibilities for the Senior Accounting Manager:

  • Lead month-end and year-end close ensuring accuracy and timeliness

  • Oversee account reconciliations, financial reporting, and core accounting functions

  • Manage and develop accounting and accounts payable staff

  • Support manufacturing accounting including inventory, standard costing, and variance analysis

  • Drive process improvements, system enhancements, and ERP-related initiatives

  • Lead special projects including audit readiness and accounting policy updates


Qualifications for the Senior Accounting Manager:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting (CPA strongly preferred)

  • 7+ years of progressive accounting experience (public accounting preferred)

  • Strong knowledge of U.S. GAAP and financial reporting

  • Prior experience managing accounting staff
