Senior Cost Accountant - Charlotte, NC

A privately held mid-size equipment manufacturer in Charlotte, North Carolina, is actively seeking a seasoned Senior Cost Accountant to fill a critical role due to the retirement of a former incumbent. This on-site position requires a minimum of 3 to 5 years of recent, relevant experience.

The Senior Cost Accountant will assume responsibility for advanced tasks including inventory and product costing and reporting, identifying areas for improvement, and collaborating with team members to ensure accurate and timely cost reporting. With a focus on product costs encompassing materials, labor, and overhead, as well as Bills of Materials (BOMs), labor collections, and overhead allocations, this role demands effective collaboration and cooperative work with others.

Qualified candidates must hold a Bachelor's Degree in Accounting coupled with 3 to 5 years of inventory and cost accounting experience in a manufacturing environment, or equivalent expertise. A comprehensive understanding of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) related to cost accounting is essential. Proficiency in SAP is mandatory, with QuickBooks experience considered advantageous. Additionally, candidates should demonstrate proficiency in database systems such as pcMRP or similar platforms, along with strong Microsoft Excel skills at an intermediate or advanced level. Experience in efficiently collaborating with engineering and manufacturing personnel on the development and analysis of cost standards is highly desirable. The ability to swiftly acquire proficiency in computer programs, construct reports using queries, lookups, and pivot tables, and gather data for reporting and analysis is essential. A strong work ethic, along with exceptional organizational and communication skills, is required, as is the capability to work independently and collaboratively with others.

The Senior Cost Accountant will be entrusted with critical responsibilities such as maintaining inventory valuation roll forward, conducting detailed analyses of inventory and labor costs, and preparing weekly, monthly, and quarterly sales, cost of goods, and inventory reports. They will also reconcile inventory monthly between pcMRP and QuickBooks, assist with cycle counts and physical inventories, and prepare monthly operational KPIs. Additionally, they will play a key role in developing new processes to enhance cost reporting and financial efficiency, presenting analyses and findings to management, and collaborating closely with manufacturing and finance on procedure documentation and improvements. Moreover, the Senior Cost Accountant will provide backup support for other accounting functions as needed.
