Tulsa, OK — Onsite

About The Role

We are seeking a dynamic and experienced financial leader to oversee all aspects of our company's accounting and reporting functions across two locations — Tulsa, OK and 1 out of state. This position may be structured as either a Corporate Controller or Chief Accounting Officer (CAO) depending on your background and experience. Reporting directly to the CEO , you will lead and mentor an accounting team (five direct reports) while managing core financial operations including AP / AR, payroll, cash management, internal controls, and compliance.

While the role is primarily based in Tulsa, a small percentage of travel ( approximately 2-3 times per year, 1-2 day visits ) will be required in our out of state location for oversight and alignment.

You'll take ownership of budgeting, forecasting, cost and margin analysis, and consolidated reporting — ensuring accurate, timely financial statements and management reports. As the primary contact for internal and external audits, you will safeguard compliance with GAAP and tax regulations. Beyond day-to-day execution, you'll partner with site leaders to align financial and operational practices and play a critical role in supporting growth initiatives such as acquisitions and expansions.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and develop a high-performing accounting team (AP / AR, payroll, Controller, and support staff).
• Responsible for maintaining costed bills of materials, including FIFO costing, labor and overhead rates, and analyzing favorable / unfavorable variances.
• Oversee financial operations across two locations.
• Manage AP / AR, payroll, inventory management, and general ledger functions.
• Drive budgeting, forecasting, cost / margin analysis, and consolidated reporting.
• Analyze financial results and budgets, deliver insights and recommendations to support executive decision-making.
• Ensure all financial reporting, audits, and project deliverables are completed accurately and on time.
• Ensure compliance with GAAP, IFRS, SOX (if applicable), and tax regulations.
• Serve as primary liaison with internal and external auditors.
• Maintain and strengthen internal controls to safeguard company assets.
• Partner with site leaders to align financial and operational practices.
• Support year-end responsibilities including cycle counts, inventory management, and pre-audit activities.
• Deliver financial due diligence and integration support for acquisitions ($2M-$20M) (a plus).
• Present financial insights and recommendations directly to the CEO and executive leadership team.

Qualifications

Why This Opportunity?

This is a rare chance to step into a high-impact leadership role, reporting directly to the CEO and shaping both financial operations and strategy for a growing manufacturing organization. You'll lead a capable team, oversee operations across two locations, contribute to meaningful expansion initiatives, and have the ability to leave a lasting mark on the company's financial success.
