    Salary:130k-150k plus bonus

    Step into a high-visibility leadership role where you’ll directly influence financial strategy for a global manufacturing segment. This is a hands-on opportunity to lead, partner with senior executives, and drive real operational impact.

    • Lead and develop a high-impact team while shaping accounting strategy

    • Play a key role in a global manufacturing environment with real business influence

    • Broad scope across inventory, costing, and plant operations—avoid siloed work

    • Opportunity to modernize processes and leverage data/analytics for decision-making

    • Partner cross-functionally with operations, sourcing, IT, and corporate finance

    • Visibility into strategic initiatives, including ERP enhancements and new product activity

    • Strong mix of leadership, technical accounting, and business partnering

    • Hybrid flexibility


    Key Responsibilities for the Manager, Accounting:


    • Lead month-end close activities, including inventory reserves, accruals, and reporting

    • Oversee inventory accounting, standard costing, and variance analysis

    • Partner with manufacturing plants to resolve costing, inventory, and margin issues

    • Review journal entries, reconciliations, and financial reporting accuracy

    • Support audits and ensure compliance with internal controls and accounting policies

    • Mentor and develop a team of accounting professionals


    Qualifications for the Manager, Accounting:


    • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance; CPA preferred

    • 5+ years of progressive accounting/finance experience, including 2+ in manufacturing

    • Strong knowledge of inventory accounting, GL, and costing processes
