We are partnering with a well-established manufacturing company to identify a Senior Cost Accountant.

  • Lead cost accounting processes, including inventory, standard costing, and variance analysis
  • Partner closely with operations to understand production costs and improve financial visibility
  • Maintain and review general ledger activity, ensuring accuracy and completeness
  • Support financial reporting and provide insight into cost drivers and business performance
  • Identify opportunities to improve processes, reporting, and internal controls
  • Assist with audit support and ongoing compliance requirements

Senior Cost Accountant – Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting preferred (flexible for strong, relevant experience)
  • 5 years of progressive accounting experience, including cost accounting in a manufacturing environment
  • Strong understanding of inventory, BOMs, and cost analysis
  • Hands-on, detail-oriented approach with the ability to operate independently
  • Eager attitude and interest in long-term growth
