The organization operates multiple manufacturing sites and is focused on strengthening financial discipline, improving close performance, and preparing the business for a future liquidity event.

- Direct management and development of general accounting, AP/AR, and cost accounting teams
- Identification and resolution of close issues, reconciliations, and legacy process gaps
- Drive continuous improvement in controls, systems, and accounting workflows
- Partner with operations leaders to improve cost visibility and financial accuracy
- Ensure GAAP compliance and audit readiness in a private-equity environment
- Has served as a Controller or senior accounting leader in a manufacturing environment
- Brings deep experience in cost accounting and operational finance
- Has owned a full month-end close and understands what it takes to fix broken processes
- Is comfortable operating in ambiguity and under time pressure
- Leads from the front and isn't afraid to get into the details
- Can mentor and elevate a developing accounting team
- Private-equity-backed or sponsor-owned companies
- Multi-plant manufacturing organizations
- Business consolidations, reorganizations, or ERP/process improvement efforts
