Baltimore-Metro Area - 1 Day Work From Home After Training/Intro Period


Not all Plant Controller opportunities are created equal.


If you're a manufacturing finance leader who enjoys rolling up your sleeves, partnering with operations, and influencing business decisions rather than just reporting numbers, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for.


Our client is a rapidly growing, family-owned manufacturing and distribution organization that has successfully expanded throughout the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast and they are quietly chasing $1Billion in Revenue.


Following significant growth and the recent launch of a new production facility, they are seeking a hands-on Plant Controller to help drive operational excellence and support the next phase of expansion.


What Makes This Opportunity Different?

✅ High visibility role partnering directly with Operations and Executive Leadership

✅ Opportunity to help build and improve processes rather than simply maintain them

✅ Work inside a newly expanded manufacturing environment experiencing significant growth

✅ Influence key business decisions through operational finance, cost accounting, inventory management, and performance analysis

✅ Join a stable, privately held organization with a long-standing reputation and ambitious growth plans


What You'll Be Doing

This role sits at the intersection of Finance and Operations. You'll serve as the financial leader supporting plant operations, ensuring that inventory, costing, manufacturing performance, and operational activities are accurately reflected in the financial results.


You'll spend time both in financial systems and on the production floor, collaborating with leaders across operations, supply chain, maintenance, procurement, and finance to improve visibility, identify opportunities, solve problems, and drive results.


Ideal Background

We're seeking an analytical and proactive finance professional with experience in:

• Cost accounting and product costing

• Manufacturing finance and plant operations

• Inventory controls and reconciliation processes

• Variance analysis and operational performance metrics

• Root-cause analysis and process improvement initiatives

• High-volume manufacturing environments preferred


Why This Role?

This isn't a back-office accounting position.

It's a chance to become a trusted business partner, influence operational performance, and play a meaningful role in a company's continued growth and success. The right individual will have a seat at the table and the ability to make a measurable impact on the organization.


For confidential consideration, EASY APPLY or please send me a direct message or email. All inquiries will be handled with the utmost discretion.
