Accounting Manager/Controller

Our client delivers barcode scanners, mobile printers, labeling hardware, board-level repair, warehousing and logistics that keep retailers, convenience stores and warehouses moving. In a less than 50 person company still in early growth, accurate numbers and tight cash control decide whether we scale or stall. You will own the financial engine that lets operations, sales and repair teams deliver without surprise.

Performance Objectives

• Close the books by the 5th business day each month with zero material adjustments and a complete package ready for leadership review.
• Build and maintain a rolling 13-week cash-flow forecast that stays within 5 % of actuals and flags shortfalls 30 days ahead.
• Stand up repeatable month-end, inventory-valuation and job-costing processes that cut close time 30 % within six months.
• Reconcile all bank, credit-card, inventory and inter-company accounts weekly so the balance sheet is always audit-ready.
• Partner with operations to implement cycle-count and repair-cost tracking that reduces inventory write-offs 15 % in the first year.
• Prepare monthly P&L, balance-sheet and KPI dashboards that give the owner a clear picture of contribution by customer, product line and service.
• File all federal, state and local returns on time and keep sales-tax, use-tax and 1099 compliance current with zero penalties.
