Job description

job details

Are you a highly curious, hands-on analyst who loves diving deep into cost drivers on the manufacturing floor?

Do you prefer the fast-paced, real-world data of a plant environment over traditional balance sheet analysis?

We are seeking a Dedicated Cost & Manufacturing Analyst to be the on-site expert, focusing purely on operational costing, profitability analysis, and supporting the sales and production teams.

Advantages

  • Competitive base salary
  • Health & Dental benefits
  • 3 weeks vacation
  • Opportunity to be a business partner and have a voice within the organization
  • CPA dues and professional development coverage

Responsibilities

  • Manufacturing Floor Deep Dive : Spend significant time in the plant to understand and record actual time, quantities, and operational flow at the part-level detail.
  • Average Costing Expert : Manage and maintain the specific average costing methodology, moving beyond standard costing assumptions.
  • Cost Analysis & Reporting : Analyze production data (time, materials, overhead) collected via Epicor and AI modules to generate accurate burn rates and detailed cost profiles.
  • Profitability Insight : Identify exactly where the company is making (or losing) money—by product, by process, and by customer.
  • Pricing & Quoting Support : Provide accurate labor rates, material rates, and comprehensive cost reports to directly support pricing strategies for new customer bids.
  • Continuous Improvement : Act as a "real digger" who is relentlessly curious about improving data accuracy and uncovering opportunities for operational efficiency.
  • Qualifications

  • Experience in a Manufacturing / Plant Environment is a MUST. You must be comfortable and willing to work on the shop floor.
  • A strong passion for Cost Accounting and operations; background in General Accounting or Financial Reporting is not the priority.
  • Proven ability to work with and validate complex inventory and production data systems (experience with Epicor is a plus).
  • Strong analytical skills with an ability to translate complex cost data into clear, actionable reports.
  • Profile : We are seeking someone highly curious, energetic, and a true problem-solver—someone who won't take data at face value and loves to "dig" for the truth.

    Ready to jump in and make a real-time impact on the bottom line? If so, please reach out to me today!
