  • Deliver timely and accurate financial reporting, including plant-level performance metrics
  • Manage month-end close and consolidated financial reporting
  • Analyze variances between standard costs and actual results; recommend improvements
  • Support budgeting, forecasting, and long-term planning with leadership
  • Identify cost-saving opportunities and drive continuous improvement initiatives
  • Ensure compliance with all regulatory and financial reporting requirements
  • Manage relationships with auditors, banks, and external partners
  • Lead, mentor, and develop the accounting team
  • Provide backup support for payroll and benefits administration as needed
 
What You Bring
  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or Business Administration
  • CPA preferred
  • 5+ years of accounting/finance experience, with manufacturing experience strongly preferred
  • Strong understanding of cost accounting, inventory management, and standard costing
  • Experience supporting plant operations or multi-site environments
  • Proven leadership experience with the ability to build and develop teams
  • Strong analytical mindset with attention to detail
 
Why Join Us?
