Job Description
We are looking for a hands-on Controller/VP of Finance to lead accounting operations and provide strong financial oversight for a manufacturing environment in Glendale, California. This role is well suited for someone who can balance strategic reporting with day-to-day execution, particularly within a smaller organization where adaptability and initiative are essential. The ideal candidate brings solid experience in cost accounting, inventory-driven financial management, and treasury-related reporting.
Responsibilities:
- Direct monthly, quarterly, and annual close activities while ensuring accurate financial statements and supporting schedules.
- Oversee manufacturing accounting processes, including inventory valuation, cost analysis, bill of materials review, and work center-related financial tracking.
- Manage cost accounting activities to improve visibility into product costs, margins, and operational performance.
- Prepare internal and external financial reports, ensuring compliance with lending requirements and debt covenant reporting obligations.
- Monitor cash activity and support treasury functions, including bank account oversight, reconciliations, and cash flow reporting.
- Partner with operational leaders to analyze manufacturing results, identify variances, and recommend corrective actions.
- Maintain strong internal controls and accounting procedures appropriate for a resource-constrained environment.
- Contribute directly to both strategic finance initiatives and day-to-day accounting tasks in a role that requires flexibility and a hands-on approach.
