Financial Controller

$120k - $135k

Creative Financial Staffing

Financial Controller- Manufacturing
Location: Newark, NJ- Daily
Compensation: $120,000-$135,000 plus bonus

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

• Own the full accounting function with true end-to-end accountability and visibility.
• Be the financial backbone for leadership, providing insights that directly inform strategy and growth.
• Lead and develop an accounting team, strengthening your people leadership and succession-building experience.
• Operate in a manufacturing environment where strong controls and operational finance really matter.
• Work with modern finance tools (SAP B1, DataRails, advanced Excel) to improve speed, accuracy, and scalability.
• Play a central role in cash management and working capital decisions that impact the business daily.
• Drive process improvements and best practices, leaving a lasting operational footprint.

Key Responsibilities for the Financial Controller:
• Lead month-, quarter-, and year-end close and ensure GAAP-compliant financial reporting.
• Oversee AP, AR, general ledger, payroll coordination, and cash positioning.
• Develop and maintain internal controls, accounting policies, and audit readiness.
• Partner with leadership on budgeting, forecasting, and financial analysis.
• Manage, mentor, and evaluate the accounting team.

Qualifications for the Financial Controller:
• 10+ years of progressive accounting/finance experience in manufacturing.
• 5+ years in a people management or leadership role.
• Deep expertise in GAAP, financial reporting, and internal controls.
• SAP Business One (SAP B1) experience preferred.
• Advanced Excel skills; DataRails experience a strong plus.
