• Ensure strong internal controls, regulatory compliance, and risk management.
• Evaluate capital investments, strategic opportunities, and potential acquisitions.
• Build and lead a high-performing finance organization.

Qualifications

• 10+ years of financial leadership experience within a manufacturing environment.
• Strong expertise in cost accounting, inventory management, and financial planning.
• Proven experience working with ERP systems; Epicor experience is a plus.
• Strong business acumen with the ability to influence decisions across departments.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to translate financial data into actionable insights.
• Aerospace, defense, or precision manufacturing experience strongly preferred.

What We’re Looking For

• A strategic thinker with strong analytical and problem-solving abilities.
• A collaborative leader who builds trust and credibility throughout the organization.
• A professional who communicates candidly, acts with integrity, and embraces accountability.
• A finance executive who enjoys partnering with leaders across the business to drive results.
• All candidates must meet the US persons criteria.

What We Offer

• Direct partnership with the CEO and Board of Directors.
• Opportunity to influence the strategic direction of a respected aerospace manufacturer.
• Competitive base salary plus bonus opportunity.
• A stable, profitable company with a strong culture and long-term vision.
