Leading the month-end close, financial reporting, and account reconciliations
Managing standard costing, inventory accounting, BOMs, COGS, and manufacturing cost analysis
Monitoring inventory accuracy, cycle counts, and variance reporting
Partnering with operations to improve productivity, reduce costs, and support continuous improvement initiatives
Preparing budgets, forecasts, and financial models to support business planning
Analyzing production performance, labour, material, and overhead costs to identify opportunities for improvement
Developing meaningful KPIs and operational reporting for plant leadership
Supporting ERP enhancements and finance process improvements
Managing capital expenditures, fixed assets, and financial controls
Ensuring compliance with internal controls, company policies, and audit requirements

Strong knowledge of standard costing, inventory accounting, cost analysis, and manufacturing operations
Experience working with ERP systems in a manufacturing environment
Ability to translate financial information into actionable insights for operational leaders

Food manufacturing experience is considered a strong asset
Why You'll Want This Opportunity
Join a newly established manufacturing facility with significant investment and long-term growth plans
Be a key member of the plant leadership team with direct influence on business decisions
Opportunity to build and improve financial processes rather than simply maintain them
Work in a collaborative, entrepreneurial environment where your ideas are valued
Competitive compensation of $140,000–$170,000, bonus potential, and comprehensive benefits
If you're a manufacturing finance professional who enjoys partnering with operations, driving continuous improvement, and making a measurable impact, we'd love to hear from you.
