Job Title : Director of Finance

Reports To : Chief Financial Officer (CFO)

Position Summary

The Director of Finance is a key leadership position responsible for overseeing all aspects of the company’s accounting and financial operations. This role provides strategic direction and hands-on leadership for core accounting functions—including general ledger, accounts payable / receivable, cash management, consolidations, and financial reporting. The Director of Finance ensures the accuracy and integrity of financial data, supports compliance and audit activities, and contributes to the development of financial policies and procedures. Reporting directly to the CFO, this role will also provide financial insights that support sound business decision-making and operational excellence.

Experience in a manufacturing environment, including cost accounting and financial planning & analysis (FP&A), is highly valued but not required.

  • Maintain and enforce internal controls, accounting policies, and compliance with GAAP.
  • Coordinate with external auditors and manage audit processes.

  • Promote a culture of accountability, integrity, and continuous improvement.
  • Partner with business leaders across departments to support financial literacy and budget accountability.

  • Support the CFO in managing banking relationships and optimizing working capital.
  • Financial Planning & Strategic Support

  • Support annual budgeting and forecasting processes in collaboration with FP&A.
  • Provide financial insights and recommendations to senior leadership to support business strategy and performance improvement.
  • Contribute to ad hoc financial analysis, capital planning, and investment evaluation.

  • 10+ years of progressive finance and accounting experience, with at least 5 years in a leadership role.
  • Strong understanding of GAAP and internal controls.
  • Proven experience leading accounting operations in a multi-entity or manufacturing environment preferred.
