Are you a Bookkeeper or Accounting Specialist looking for a role where you can take real ownership, broaden your skills beyond and really grow with a small, fast-moving manufacturing business?
Is now the time to join a company where you can build the role around your strengths, learn the operational side of the business and develop your career as the company grows?
You’ll be joining a specialist manufacturer that designs and builds custom equipment used across manufacturing environments. With new investment and new management, they’re building out the next generation of their team to help take the business forward.
This is a genuinely broad role where your accounting background gives you the foundation, but you won’t be boxed into a typical office-only position. You’ll work across AP/AR, QuickBooks, projects, inventory and day-to-day office operations, with plenty of on-the-job training as you learn how the shop and operations side of the business works.
This role would suit someone with a solid accounting foundation who wants more responsibility, long-term development, and a clear opportunity to shape a role around their strengths, with potential progression into a Controller or Assistant Production Manager position.
The Role:
- Take ownership of AP/AR, invoicing, vendor payments, reconciliations and day-to-day QuickBooks activity
- Support month-end close, commission calculations and project closeout while working closely with production and sales
- Manage inventory, stock parts, office supplies and other day-to-day processes that keep the business running smoothly
- Learn the operational side of the business and take ownership of new responsibilities as you develop
The Person:
- Accounting, bookkeeping, AP/AR or similar experience
- QuickBooks and strong Excel skills
- Organized, diligent and comfortable taking ownership and working autonomously
- Comfortable spending time in an active manufacturing environment and keen to learn beyond their existing experience
