About the role

  • This role reports formally to the Senior Finance Manager, with a dotted-line relationship to the Plant Manager.
  • That structure is intentional -- it preserves independent financial oversight while ensuring close day-to-day partnership with the people running the plant.

Responsibilities

  • Own the plant's full financial reporting: monthly close, variance analysis, and management reporting on plant performance
  • Maintain internal controls at the plant level and flag risks or process gaps to corporate Finance
  • Lead budgeting and forecasting for the facility, partnering with the Plant Manager on labor, materials, overhead, and capital planning
  • Evaluate capital expenditure requests and provide financial analysis to support operational decision-making -- new equipment, additional shifts, headcount, and more
  • Analyze manufacturing cost variances (material, labor, overhead) and partner with Operations to identify root causes and corrective actions
  • Own inventory valuation, cycle counts, and obsolescence reserve analysis for the facility, ensuring GAAP compliance and audit readiness
  • Partner with Procurement on vendor cost analysis, tariff/duty impact, and supply chain cost trends
  • Build a trusted, credible relationship with the Plant Manager and Operations team -- you're their finance partner, not a corporate auditor

Requirements

  • 5+ years of progressive accounting or finance experience, with at least 2 years in a manufacturing or plant finance role
  • Strong understanding of GAAP, cost accounting, and inventory valuation
  • Experience partnering directly with plant and operations leadership in a dotted-line or matrixed reporting structure
  • Strong presentation and communication skills -- you can walk a Plant Manager through a variance analysis and present the same material to a CFO

Nice to have

  • Experience with international supply chains, tariffs, and customs/duty considerations
  • CPA or CMA credential
  • Background in a high-growth, venture-backed manufacturing or hardware company
  • Familiarity with standard costing in a multi-SKU, complex BOM environment
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance
  • CPA or CMA preferred
  • Experience with ERP/MRP systems -- NetSuite or similar a plus
