Cost Accounting Manager

Full-time

Confidential

Every product has a story told in numbers: material costs, labor, overhead, margin. We're looking for a Cost Accounting Manager who can own that story from end to end and use it to help leadership make sharper decisions.

What You'll Take On

  • Lead standard costing processes, including setting, reviewing, and updating standard costs
  • Analyze cost variances (material, labor, overhead) and explain the "why" behind the numbers
  • Own inventory accounting and valuation, ensuring accuracy across the balance sheet
  • Partner with Operations and Supply Chain to understand cost drivers and identify margin improvement opportunities
  • Support month-end close activities related to cost accounting and inventory
  • Build and maintain costing models to support new product launches and pricing decisions
  • Strengthen internal controls around inventory and cost accounting processes
  • Manage and develop cost accounting staff
  • Support physical inventory counts and reconciliation processes

What You Bring

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance; CPA or CMA a plus
  • 5+ years of accounting experience, with meaningful cost accounting or manufacturing accounting exposure
  • Strong understanding of standard costing, variance analysis, and inventory valuation
  • Comfortable partnering directly with Operations and Supply Chain teams
  • Prior experience managing or mentoring staff a plus
  • Sharp analytical instincts and comfort translating cost data into actionable insight
