CFS
North Haven, CT Full Time
POSTED ON 4/17/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 5/15/2026
In-Office Position

$60-65/hour

We’re partnering with a multi-site, high-growth organization with $200M in annual revenue to identify a Controller with strong technical accounting experience and a background in manufacturing.

This is a highly visible, hands-on leadership role supporting accounting operations across multiple locations. The Controller will play a key role in financial reporting, operational partnership, and driving process improvements across the organization.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Oversee the month-end and year-end close process across multiple sites
  • Prepare and review consolidated financial statements and supporting schedules
  • Manage general ledger activity, reconciliations, and ensure reporting accuracy
  • Partner with operations and leadership on budgeting, forecasting, and financial analysis
  • Lead, mentor, and develop accounting staff
  • Analyze inventory, standard costing, and manufacturing variances
  • Support ERP system functionality, reporting, and continuous improvement initiatives
  • Assist with audits and ensure compliance with internal controls

What We’re Looking For

  • Prior experience in a Controller or senior-level accounting role
  • Background in manufacturing, distribution, or a multi-site product-based environment
  • Strong understanding of cost accounting, inventory, and standard costing
  • Experience working in a multi-entity or multi-location structure
  • Experience with ERP systems (Microsoft Dynamics, Business Central, NAV, or similar)
  • Strong knowledge of GAAP and financial reporting
  • Proven leadership and team management experience
  • Ability to operate both strategically and tactically
  • Excellent communication and problem-solving skills

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Opportunity to support a large, multi-site organization with significant scale
  • High visibility with executive leadership and operations
  • Ability to make a measurable impact across locations and processes
  • Collaborative, team-oriented environment with growth potential
