The Role

As Controller US
, you are a core member of the Finance US team and report directly to the Director of Finance US
, a member of the U.S. Leadership Team and the primary business partner to Operations.

This role is deliberately focused on the financial backbone and cost mechanics of the U.S. operation. You ensure financial accuracy, cost transparency, and disciplined execution across manufacturing and packaging activities. You translate operational reality into reliable, audit-ready financial data the business can trust.

You also provide direct line management to the AP/AR Clerk
, ensuring strong execution, accuracy, and control across transactional finance processes. This is a hands‑on role combining deep cost accounting expertise, operational finance ownership, and focused people leadership in a lean finance organization.

Your day may start with reviewing cost variances across labor, materials, and overhead, followed by discussions with Operations to understand root causes and corrective actions. You validate inventory balances, review pricing accuracy ahead of invoicing, and ensure revenue and costs are matched correctly by period.

Throughout the month, you safeguard financial close quality, maintain internal controls, and prepare clean financial statements leadership can rely on. You coach the AP/AR Clerk on priorities, cutoff discipline, and audit readiness. By the end of the day, you’ve strengthened cost transparency, protected margins, and reinforced financial rigor across the site.
