Plant Controller

Confidential
Confidential Salary
Cleveland, OH Full Time
POSTED ON 9/17/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 10/16/2026

Our plant runs on more than machines; it runs on accurate numbers, tight controls, and someone who can translate the shop floor into the P&L. We're looking for a Plant Controller who's just as comfortable walking the production floor as they are closing the books.


What You'll Drive

  • Ownership of plant-level financial reporting, including income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow reporting
  • Development and upkeep of accounting systems that accurately capture plant financial activity
  • Monitoring of plant spending, with variance analysis to keep costs in check
  • Internal controls that protect plant assets and keep the operation compliant with company policy
  • Financial analysis that identifies cost-reduction opportunities and process improvements
  • Forecasting and trend analysis in partnership with plant leadership


What You Bring

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance
  • 7 years of accounting experience, ideally within a manufacturing or plant environment
  • A working understanding of how plant operations actually function, not just how to account for them
  • The ability to build relationships across departments and drive alignment on financial priorities
  • A knack for pushing issues to resolution rather than just flagging them
  • Comfort operating in a fast-moving, hands-on environment


The Details

This is a plant where finance has a real voice in operational decisions; you won't be stuck behind a desk disconnected from the business you're accounting for.


Salary : $115,000 - $135,000
