Job description
Controller $120-140K plus 10-20% BONUS
Manufacturing | Private Equity Owned | High Visibility Role
2 Days a week in the office !!!
Legacy Search has partnered with a rapidly growing, private equity owned manufacturing company that is seeking a Controller to join its finance team in a highly visible role reporting directly to the CFO. This is an excellent opportunity for a hands-on accounting professional looking to step into a true “right hand to the CFO” position with meaningful exposure to leadership, operations, and strategic initiatives
About the Opportunity
This firm is thriving, and doing so well it has become a long term hold for its PE Ownership. The Controller will play a critical role in strengthening the month-end close process, improving internal controls, and supporting financial reporting for both internal leadership and external stakeholders.
Key Responsibilities
- Own and execute the monthly, quarterly, and year-end close processes
- Prepare and review journal entries, account reconciliations, and financial statements
- Partner closely with the CFO on financial reporting, analysis, and presentation materials
- Support private equity reporting requirements, lender reporting, and audit processes
- Assist in cash management, budgeting/forecasting, and variance analysis
- Evaluate and enhance internal controls and accounting processes
- Collaborate cross-functionally with operations to understand cost drivers and inventory
- Contribute to system and process improvements as the company scales
Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance; CPA strongly preferred
- 5–8+ years of progressive accounting experience (manufacturing or inventory experience highly preferred)
- Background in public accounting and/or PE-backed / mid-market environment is a plus
- Strong understanding of GAAP, cost accounting, and intercompany accounting.
- Advanced Excel skills and experience with ERP systems
- Proven ability to operate in a fast-paced, evolving environment with a high level of ownership
Why This Role?
- Direct exposure to and mentorship from an experienced CFO
- Opportunity to influence and build processes in a growing organization
- Broad scope beyond traditional accounting — true business partnership
- Clear path for career progression as the company continues to scale
