PLANT CONTROLLER | HIGH-VISIBILITY MANUFACTURING LEADERSHIP OPPORTUNITY If you’re an accounting leader who enjoys being close to the business—not buried in a spreadsheet all day—this could be a great opportunity. I’m recruiting for a Plant Controller with a global manufacturing organization that is investing heavily in technology and innovation. This is a role where you’ll have a seat at the table and the opportunity to influence plant performance, cost structure, operational efficiency, and strategic decision-making. Why This Role Stands Out You won’t simply be responsible for closing the books. You’ll be the financial leader for a manufacturing operation, partnering directly with plant leadership and operational teams to understand what is happening on the floor—and, more importantly, what the numbers are telling you about where the business is headed. You’ll have ownership across: ✅ Plant accounting & financial reporting✅ Cost accounting & inventory✅ Budgeting & forecasting✅ Variance analysis✅ Cash flow & working capital✅ Capital investment analysis✅ Cost reduction & productivity initiatives✅ Internal controls & compliance✅ Audit management✅ Financial dashboards & reporting✅ Team leadership & development This is a great fit for someone who wants to move beyond traditional accounting and become a true business partner to operations. You’ll work with plant leadership, finance, and corporate teams while helping drive decisions around cost, productivity, capital, profitability, and operational performance. And if you're someone who enjoys developing people, you'll also have the opportunity to mentor and grow an accounting team. In short: if you’re a Controller, Plant Controller, or strong Senior Accounting leader who understands manufacturing and wants a bigger seat at the table, I’d like to talk. #Hiring #PlantController #Controller #AccountingJobs #ManufacturingJobs #AutomotiveJobs #FinanceJobs #AccountingLeadership #IndianaJobs #Leadership #Manufacturing
