Position Summary:

We are seeking a seasoned and proactive Controller with management experience to lead the finance function across multiple manufacturing sites and manage two P&Ls. This role is critical in ensuring our operations remain GAAP and SOX compliant while driving financial discipline, operational excellence, and strategic decision-making. The ideal candidate has a robust background in cost accounting, capitalized variance, and ERP systems, and brings a strong perspective on how a high-performing finance department should operate.

We are seeking a self-starter —who is a proactive, accountable leader, who can own the numbers, ask the right questions, and drive clarity and results.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities:

· Lead the full accounting and finance function across three manufacturing sites and two P&Ls, ensuring consistent processes, reporting, and controls across locations.

· Ensure timely and accurate monthly, quarterly, and annual financial closings, with full ownership of site financial statements in compliance with US GAAP.

· Maintain and enforce SOX-compliant internal controls across all sites; lead audit readiness and compliance activities.

· Drive high standards of cost accounting, including standard costing, inventory valuation, BOM integrity, and capitalized variance analysis.

· Oversee balance sheet reconciliations and ensure issues are resolved quickly and correctly through strong root-cause analysis.

· Leverage ERP systems to drive accurate production order tracking, costing, and reporting—identify gaps and lead system/process improvements.

· Provide detailed financial analysis and insights to support operations, supply chain, and executive decision-making.

· Own the development and management of site-level budgets, rolling forecasts, and capital investment planning.

· Lead financial audits.

· Lead, coach, and develop finance team members across sites—fostering a culture of ownership, performance, and collaboration.

· Act as a strategic thought partner to the GM and business leaders, bringing a financial lens to daily operations and long-term planning.

· Monitor and analyze key performance indicators (KPIs) to drive continuous improvement and profitability.

· Manage interactions with corporate finance, external auditors, and other stakeholders as needed.

· Other duties as assigned.

Requirements

· Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field (CPA or MBA preferred).

· 7+ years of progressive experience in accounting/finance with 3+ years in a manufacturing environment.

· Strong background in cost accounting and capitalized manufacturing variance tracking.

· Hands-on experience managing or supporting multiple P&Ls.

· High proficiency with ERP systems (Acumatica, SAP, Oracle, or similar); systems implementation/improvement experience a plus.

· In-depth knowledge of GAAP, SOX, and internal control frameworks.

· Proven leadership skills with the ability to manage remote site finance teams and drive accountability.

· Excellent problem-solving, analytical, and communication skills—you ask the right questions and make sound judgment calls.

· You thrive in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment where getting things done is just the baseline.

· HRIS system experience (e.g., Paylocity, ADP or Workday) helpful.

Work Environment and Physical Demands:

· This is a primarily sedentary on-site position that operates primarily in a professional office environment within a manufacturing facility requiring typical office mobility as well as use of stairs.

· While performing the duties of this job, the employee will routinely use standard office equipment such as computers, phones, and printers.

· The role may require occasional visits to the production floor, which may involve exposure to machinery, noise, manufacturing processes.

· Ability to sit or stand for extended periods, perform computer work, and communicate effectively in person and electronically.

· Some lifting of office materials (up to 25 lbs) may be required on occasion.

· Occasional travel (less than 10%) may be required to other Quantic company facilities, meetings or audits.
