What is legacy manufacturing?

Legacy manufacturing refers to the use of traditional production methods, equipment, and processes that have been in place for many years, often before the introduction of modern technologies like automation and digitalization. These systems might rely on older machinery, manual labor, and established workflows that have stood the test of time. While legacy manufacturing can be reliable and cost-effective, it may face challenges in efficiency, flexibility, and integration with new technologies. Many companies are working to modernize or integrate legacy systems to stay competitive in today’s rapidly evolving marketplace.

Location: Ayer, MA

Position Type: Contract - Hire

Pay: $85 - $100 /hour

Benefits: This position is eligible for medical, dental, vision and 401(K).

Position Summary

We are seeking a hands-on Senior Controller or Finance Manager to join a lean, tenured finance team within a multi-entity beverage manufacturing operation. This is a GL-first role with full ownership of at least one entity's accounting function and finance-manager-level oversight across the remaining entities. The ideal candidate is self-sufficient, comfortable running the day-to-day on-site while reporting to remote senior leadership, and brings genuine depth in general ledger accounting within a manufacturing environment. This is not an FP&A role — we need someone who knows debits and credits cold and is ready to be in the weeds from day one.

Responsibilities

General Ledger & Close

  • Own the full accounting function for at least one entity end-to-end, including journal entries, reconciliations, and period close
  • Support a 13-period close process across multiple entities
  • Manage complex intercompany and related-party transactions with accuracy and consistency
  • Ensure proper allocations and GL integrity across the full chart of accounts

Multi-Entity Oversight

  • Provide finance-manager-level oversight of day-to-day accounting activity across remaining entities
  • Coordinate with on-site controllers to maintain alignment and consistency across the organization
  • Support one anticipated additional hire as the team continues to scale

Reporting & Analysis

  • Pull and analyze data in a query and pivot-table environment to support financial reporting
  • Assist with variance analysis, forecasting, budgeting, and financial planning on a secondary basis
  • Surface issues and recommendations to the CFO and senior leadership proactively

Qualifications

Required

  • 5+ years of experience at the senior controller or finance manager level
  • Manufacturing industry background — non-negotiable
  • Strong general ledger accounting fundamentals: journal entries, reconciliations, period close ownership
  • Experience with multi-entity accounting and intercompany/related-party transactions
  • Advanced Excel skills and comfort working in a query/pivot-table environment
  • Self-directed and able to operate effectively with remote senior leadership
  • Must be available on-site in Ayer, MA five days per week

Preferred

  • Food & beverage, CPG, or cooperative manufacturing experience
  • Exposure to standard costing and inventory accounting
  • Familiarity with Infor System21 or comparable legacy manufacturing ERP
  • Experience with SAP Ariba

Not a Fit

  • Career FP&A professionals or financial analysts without demonstrated GL depth
  • Director or CFO-level candidates seeking a strategic-only role
