  • Maintain & strengthen SOX internal controls 

Inventory Control

  • Plan/execute physical inventories and reconciliation to SAP
  • Monitor/communicate inventory movement trends & impact to P&L

Reporting & Analysis

  • Drive process improvements, automation, and system enhancements
  • Oversee cost allocations, activity rates, and planning cycles with precision

Leadership & Influence

  • Build a culture of accountability, continuous improvement & collaboration

What You Bring

  • Bachelor's degree with CPA, CMA or MBA highly preferred
  • 10+ years of progressive experience in manufacturing finance with background in ramping up/transforming high-growth plant operations (computer/electronics manufacturing a major win)
  • Expertise in SAP
  • Deep understanding of standard costing, manufacturing cost structures, and inventory accounting
  • Working knowledge of SOX/internal controls
