Reliance Worldwide Corporation (RWC) is a global provider of water control systems and plumbing solutions for domestic, commercial and industrial applications. Founded in 1949, the RWC family of brands has continually evolved to exceed global industry standards with diversified manufacturing and distribution operations across three continents. RWC has dedicated more than 70 years to its business, brands and products, and maintains a commitment to innovation by investing in high-value automation to remain competitive in the global environment.

With more than 700 intellectual property assets globally, comprising patents, industrial designs and trademark registrations, RWC continues to invest in research/development and engineering resources to bring innovative new products to the market.

In order to fund its next stage of growth and maintain its aggressive trajectory, RWC went public on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX: RWC) in April of 2016. With manufacturing and distribution operations across Europe, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, China and the US, RWC is well positioned for continued product expansion and market growth in the years to come. Both RWC’s Global and US headquarters are based in Atlanta, Georgia.

Since 2012, RWC Americas’ revenues have tripled and now make up over 65% of the company’s worldwide consolidated revenues; it expects to more than double those revenues through continued organic and acquisition means in the coming years. With that, RWC Americas’ Assistant Operations Controller will support the Operations Controller in maintaining standard costs within ERP, serve as a financial compliance leader to our largest operating site in the Americas, and work to improve the organization’s overall financial best practices and analytical capabilities to lead that growth rather than react to it.

The Assistant Operations Controller will report to the Operations Controller and will interface with all members of the company’s leadership team and with all company functional areas, primarily focused on supporting the dynamic needs of our Operations throughout the United States, Mexico, Canada and China. Through supporting the Operations organization, the Assistant Operations Controller must have significant manufacturing and inventory costing experience, as well as business partnering skills related to remote Manufacturing, Engineering, Supply Chain, Procurement, Logistics & Distribution, and Human Resources functions.

S/He will be responsible for overseeing all facets of the financial impact of the Americas operational footprint including accounting for factory and distribution center operations, and intercompany and externally sourced product. The Assistant Operations Controller will perform and manage all accounting related to the monthly close process, standard cost maintenance, internal and external financial reporting, analysis of business performance, and internal controls as well as policy development and implementation for all functions that are not considered general ledger functions that are performed by the regional and/or group head office.

The new Assistant Operations Controller will provide comprehensive Accounting and relationship-building skills and services to support the overall business, providing a foundation for accurate and timely business performance reporting and analysis.
