This is an opportunity to make a meaningful impact in a growing company. You’ll work closely with company leadership and have a voice in improving the way the business operates financially.

We’re looking for someone who enjoys taking ownership, solving problems, and building things the right way. Rather than stepping into a rigid corporate environment, you’ll have the opportunity to shape the accounting function, improve processes, and see the direct results of your work.

You’ll also gain exposure to the broader business, working alongside operations, sales, and procurement and helping leadership make informed financial decisions.

What you can expect:

• A key leadership position with significant responsibility and autonomy

• General ledger management and account reconciliations
• Accounts payable and accounts receivable
• Bank reconciliations and assigning/coding bank transactions
• Financial statements and management reporting
• Inventory accounting, costing, valuation, and reconciliations
• Cash flow and working-capital management and reporting
• Budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis
• Internal controls and accounting procedures
• Banking relationships and coordination with financial institutions
• Coordination with our outside CPA, tax professionals, and other financial partners
• Managing business insurance needs, including obtaining and evaluating bids for office, liability, and sales-related insurance
• Identifying opportunities to improve financial processes, reporting, and efficiency
• Helping develop scalable accounting systems and procedures as 20/20 Metals continues to grow
• Providing financial insight and recommendations to leadership to support sound business decisions

What We’re Looking For:

We’re looking for someone who is analytical, accountable, detail-oriented, and comfortable getting into the weeds while still seeing the bigger picture.

The ideal candidate will have:

• Strong accounting and finance experience, including general ledger management and financial reporting
• Previous experience as a Controller or in a senior accounting role
• Experience with cost accounting, inventory valuation, reconciliations, and margin analysis
• Experience in distribution, manufacturing, metals, or another inventory-intensive business is highly valued
• Strong knowledge of GAAP and internal controls
• Experience with accounting software and ERP systems
• Advanced Microsoft Excel skills
• The ability to analyze financial information, prepare forecasts, and communicate meaningful insights to leadership
• Excellent organizational, analytical, and problem-solving skills
• Strong attention to detail and accuracy
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively across different areas of the business
• Demonstrated integrity, sound professional judgment, and a strong sense of accountability
