Employment: Full-time, permanent (direct hire)
An established, rapidly growing food manufacturing company is hiring an Assistant Controller to lead day-to-day operational accounting and plant cost-control systems. This is a senior-level lieutenant role working directly alongside the Plant Controller: managing a local team, maintaining technical GAAP integrity, and transforming production floor data into actionable financial insights to drive business performance.
What You'll Own
- Supervise, mentor, and review the performance of a 5-person operational accounting team across Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, and General Ledger (2 professional, 3 clerical reports)
- Own the execution of monthly and year-end close processes, including journal entries, robust account reconciliations, and the preparation of monthly financial statements in compliance with GAAP
- Manage all plant-floor cost accounting activities, including standard costing configurations, inventory variance analysis (material, labor, scrap, yield loss), and complex overhead allocations
- Oversee multi-location inventory performance, monitoring physical cycle counts, tracking transactions, and executing tracking metrics to maximize inventory precision
- Act as the internal finance power-user for the NetSuite ERP platform to optimize daily financial operations and financial reporting workflows
- Partner cross-functionally with manufacturing, supply chain, and operations teams to monitor cost drivers and support operational efficiency
- Assist with annual external audits, board reporting preparation, executive presentations, and regulatory compliance
What You'll Bring
- 10 or more years of progressive corporate accounting experience, with clear continuity within a physical manufacturing environment
- Strong, proven proficiency utilizing NetSuite ERP within an industrial or plant setting
- Solid hands-on background in cost accounting, standard costing, and inventory valuation systems
- Experience with financial forecasting, budgeting, and driver-based financial modeling
- Advanced Microsoft Excel skills (including Macros, Pivot Tables, and lookups)
- Clear experience directly supervising line staff or an accounting sub-team
Nice to Have
- Food or beverage manufacturing background (perishable goods experience)
- Active professional certifications (CPA or CMA)
If you are a hands-on accounting professional who can lead a local team, navigate NetSuite seamlessly, and partner with plant operations to protect product margins, this is a high-ownership seat with real bonus upside.
