Accounting Manager​/Supervisor

Location: Walnut

Description

Accounting Professionals:
Has Your Role Become More About Reporting the Numbers Than Driving the Business?

Many accounting professionals in manufacturing are excellent at month-end close, reconciliations, and financial reporting.

The challenge? Too few roles allow you to truly influence operations, challenge assumptions, improve margins, and help leadership make better business decisions.

I'm partnering on a manufacturing Accounting Manager opportunity with a growing manufacturing organization that recently acquired a Midwest operation and is investing heavily in process improvements, operational visibility, and future ERP transformation.

This isn't a role where you're buried in journal entries all day.

✅ Partner directly with plant leadership and operations

✅ Own cost accounting, inventory analysis, and manufacturing financial insights

✅ Help drive profitability and identify cost-saving opportunities

✅ Play a key role in an upcoming ERP/SAP implementation

✅ Influence business decisions through analytics and operational reporting

✅ Work closely with a highly collaborative Controller who wants this person to become her trusted business partner

Why Someone Might Consider a Conversation

Many professionals reach a point where they want more visibility, influence, and business partnership opportunities-not just additional accounting tasks.

If you're currently successful where you are but would be interested in learning about a role that offers meaningful operational exposure, leadership interaction, and long-term growth potential, I'd welcome a confidential conversation.
