Cost Accounting Manager
$85k - $125kCreative Financial Staffing
Senior Cost Accountant / Cost Accounting Manager
Salary : $85,000-$125,000
Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
• This is a hands-on cost accounting role with a global manufacturing organization that operates in highly engineered, precision-based products used across industrial and advanced technology markets
• You'll join a stable, well-supported plant accounting team where leadership is approachable, engaged, and committed to development rather than micromanagement
• This opportunity sits within a multi-site global organization with operations across North America, Europe, and Asia, offering exposure to international manufacturing complexity
• The role supports a ~$20M plant P&L with a fast-paced month-end close environment designed for efficiency and strong process ownership
• Strong visibility to both plant leadership and corporate finance, including direct partnership with engineering and operations teams
• Leadership has a strong track record of internal mobility, with managers who have grown significantly within the organization over time
• The company operates in high-demand, defense-related and industrial markets with consistent production cycles and strong long-term stability
Key Responsibilities:
• Own month-end close activities for a multi-plant manufacturing site including journal entries, accruals, reconciliations, and financial reporting
• Perform inventory accounting including E&O analysis, NRV calculations, capitalized variances, and budget vs actual review
• Maintain and reconcile fixed assets, depreciation schedules, and prepaid accounts
• Partner with engineering and plant operations to ensure BOM accuracy and support cost integrity
• Assist with cycle counts, inventory control processes, and FIFO costing methodologies
• Support invoice vouching and three-way match processes as needed
Qualifications:
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance required
• 5+ years of manufacturing cost accounting experience required
• Strong Excel skills; exposure to BI tools or automation (Power BI, macros) is a plus EB-1579432101
