Controller
Creative Financial Staffing
Ready to step into a high-visibility Controller role where you can influence strategy and build a best-in-class finance function? This is a career-defining opportunity to partner directly with leadership in a growing industrial organization. Controller
Salary: 140,000-155,000 + 10% Bonus
Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
• Direct partnership with executive leadership, giving you a true seat at the table
• High-impact role with the ability to shape financial strategy and operational performance
• Opportunity to drive process improvements and modernize systems (SAP S/4HANA environment)
• Blend of strategic leadership and hands-on execution-no siloed responsibilities
• Exposure to global teams and corporate leadership, expanding your influence and network
• Ability to build, mentor, and scale a high-performing finance team
• Stable, well-established business with continued growth trajectory
• Strong operational footprint where finance plays a critical role in business success
Key Responsibilities for the Controller:
• Lead accounting, financial reporting, and cash management functions
• Own month-end and year-end close processes, ensuring accuracy and efficiency
• Oversee budgeting, forecasting, and financial planning initiatives
• Partner with leadership to drive strategic decisions and performance improvements
• Manage ERP systems (SAP S/4HANA preferred) and optimize financial workflows
• Oversee audits, compliance, and internal controls
Qualifications for the Controller:
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance (CPA strongly preferred)
• 10+ years of progressive accounting/finance experience with leadership responsibility
• Manufacturing or industrial industry experience required
• ERP experience (SAP S/4HANA or similar)
