Controller

CFS
South Bend, IN Full Time
POSTED ON 6/7/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 7/5/2026
Controller – South Bend, Indiana

Salary: $140,000–$160,000

Are you a hands‑on Controller who wants real ownership, influence, and the chance to shape the finance function of a growing organization? This role offers high visibility, meaningful impact, and the opportunity to partner closely with an exceptional CFO who values collaboration, development, and strategic thinking.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Competitive compensation: $140,000–$160,000
  • Growth trajectory: Join a company with strong momentum and long‑term upside
  • High-impact partnership: Work directly with a supportive, forward‑thinking CFO
  • Autonomy: Make the role your own — not a rigid, check‑the‑box Controller seat
  • Career advancement: Clear path to grow as the business scales
  • Strong benefits: Designed to support both your career and quality of life
  • Positive culture: Teamwork, accountability, and continuous improvement are core values

What You’ll Do

  • Lead all accounting operations, including GL, AP/AR, payroll, cash receipts, and fixed assets
  • Own the monthly and annual close processes in accordance with GAAP
  • Supervise, mentor, and develop the accounting team
  • Drive process improvements and strengthen internal controls
  • Manage consolidations and prepare accurate financial statements for leadership and the Board
  • Lead budgeting, audits, regulatory reporting, and cash/investment management

What We’re Looking For

  • BS in Accounting
  • Proven experience leading full-cycle accounting and close processes in a manufacturing environment
  • Strong working knowledge of GAAP and financial reporting
  • Experience managing and developing accounting teams
  • A proactive, collaborative leader who thrives in a growing, evolving organization
