Position: Principal Cost Accountant (Principal Business Analyst)

Principal Cost Accountant (Principal Business Analyst)

We’re partnering with a leading manufacturing organization to add an experienced Accounting professional to their team. This role supports multiple production sites and plays a key part in cost visibility, financial accuracy, and operational decision‑making.

If you enjoy hands‑on work, collaborating with plant teams, and being the go‑to person for cost and production insights, this could be a strong fit.

What You’ll Do
  • Oversee day‑to‑day accounting activities and month‑end close for assigned sites
  • Prepare cost reports, production analyses, and performance summaries
  • Partner closely with plant managers on forecasts, budgets, and financial planning
  • Support inventory counts and dig into variances when needed
  • Assist with BOM reviews, standard cost updates, and pricing accuracy
  • Provide support for audits and capital project requests
  • Jump in as backup support whenever the team needs it
What You Bring
  • Bachelor’s in Accounting + 7+ years of progressive experience (manufacturing preferred)
  • Bonus points for CPA/CMA or an advanced degree
  • Strong cost accounting knowledge
  • Experience with ERP systems (SAP or JDE highly preferred)
  • Advanced Excel skills
  • Detail‑driven, organized, and comfortable juggling multiple priorities
  • Strong communication skills and ability to partner across teams
Why This Role Stands Out
  • Broad exposure across multiple manufacturing locations
  • High impact and visibility with plant leadership
  • Hybrid flexibility
  • Stable leadership, strong culture, and long‑term growth opportunities
