Our client, a growing food manufacturing company, is looking for a Corporate Controller to join their team! Our client is seeking a Corporate Controller to serve as the senior accounting leader for the enterprise. Reporting directly to the CFO, this role is responsible for overseeing accounting operations across corporate headquarters and multiple manufacturing facilities.

The Corporate Controller will lead the corporate accounting team while providing functional oversight to Controllers embedded at each plant. This individual will play a critical role in strengthening internal controls, building scalable accounting processes, and ensuring accurate, timely financial reporting across the organization.

Responsibilities :

  • Serve as the senior accounting leader across all entities and functions
  • Own the monthly, quarterly, and annual close processes, including consolidations
  • Ensure compliance with US GAAP and internal accounting policies
  • Partner closely with the CFO on financial reporting, audit readiness, and accounting strategy
  • Lead a corporate accounting team of 3 to 4 professionals
  • Provide functional leadership and oversight to three plant Controllers across manufacturing locations
  • Manage, coach, and develop both onsite and remote team members
  • Establish clear expectations, accountability, and consistent reporting standards across locations
  • Oversee inventory accounting, standard costing, variance analysis, and plant-level financial controls
  • Partner with operations and plant leadership to improve cost visibility and financial discipline
  • Ensure accurate inventory valuation and reliable manufacturing financial reporting
  • Design, build, and refine accounting processes that support a growing, multi-site manufacturing business
  • Strengthen internal controls, documentation, and governance where processes are still evolving
  • Identify inefficiencies and lead continuous improvement initiatives across accounting operations

Qualifications :

  • Proven experience as a Controller or senior accounting leader in a mid-size to large organization
  • Experience leading accounting teams across multiple locations, including remote teams
  • Strong technical foundation in US GAAP, financial close, consolidations, and internal controls
  • Manufacturing experience particularly in food, CPG, or industrial environments
  • Experience in organizations that are still being built or professionalized, not fully mature enterprises
  • Builder mentality with a desire to create, improve, and scale
  • Strong communicator who can partner effectively with operations, plant leadership, and executive stakeholders
  • Nice to have :

  • Experience supporting companies in the $300M to $1B+ revenue range
  • Track record of building structure, processes, and teams rather than inheriting a fully developed accounting function
  • Comfortable operating in environments with ambiguity, change, and evolving priorities
  • Seniority level
