Controller

Seeking a Controller for a well-respected manufacturing organization in the area! Ready to step into a high-impact Controller role where you’ll truly own plant-level finance and have a visible seat at the leadership table? This Controller opportunity offers stability, autonomy, career growth, and the chance to make a measurable impact in a thriving manufacturing environment. Salary: $110,000-$140,000 + Bonus Location: 100% Onsite. Open to candidates within a reasonable commute range of company headquarters. Why This Controller Opportunity Stands Out: Join an established manufacturing operation where the Controller is a key business partner to leadership. Gain significant visibility with both local operations and corporate finance leadership. Enjoy a family-oriented culture that prioritizes work-life balance and long-term employee success. Work in an environment that prefers to promote from within and supports career advancement opportunities. Take ownership of the entire finance function rather than being limited to a narrow area of accounting. Influence operational and financial decision-making through forecasting, inventory management, and cost analysis. Lead and develop a finance team while partnering closely with cross-functional departments. Receive a guaranteed three weeks of vacation, with the ability to purchase additional time off. Benefit from bonus eligibility, 401(k), medical coverage, company-paid life insurance, and short-term disability benefits. Have a dedicated office and the autonomy to lead as the plant’s financial expert. Key Responsibilities for the Controller: Own inventory controls, reporting, and financial accuracy across the plant. Lead monthly forecasting, annual budgeting, and ongoing financial planning activities. Perform manufacturing cost variance analysis and provide recommendations to improve performance. Manage month-end close processes and ensure timely, accurate financial reporting. Monitor overhead spending, capital plans, and overall plant financial performance. Direct and develop finance staff while supporting plant and corporate objectives. Qualifications for the Controller: Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field. Manufacturing experience is required. 3–5+ years of progressive finance and accounting experience. At least 2 years of accounting leadership or supervisory experience. Strong experience with budgeting, forecasting, inventory, and manufacturing cost accounting. Advanced proficiency with Microsoft Excel and financial reporting tools. If you are a hands-on Controller who enjoys being visible on the plant floor, driving operational decisions, and leading a finance function with autonomy, this Controller position offers an outstanding opportunity to make an immediate impact. The right Controller will bring manufacturing expertise, leadership ability, and the confidence to own the numbers while partnering with operations. This Controller role is ideal for a professional seeking long‑term growth and influence within a successful organization. #Controller #AccountingJobs #FinanceJobs #ManufacturingJobs #ControllerJobs #J-18808-Ljbffr
