About the Role
US Controller – Minnesota – Twin Cities
Salary:175,000 to 190,000 plus 20 to 25% bonus
Relocation Package Available
Step into the top U.S. accounting leadership role for a manufacturing business preparing for its next chapter. This hands-on Controller opportunity offers real influence, operational partnership, and direct exposure to private equity exit readiness.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
- Serve as the #1 U.S. accounting leader with end-to-end ownership and visibility
- Play a key role in preparing the business for a future private equity exit
- Partner directly with manufacturing and operations leaders to drive cost visibility and plant performance
- Lead accounting transformation, process improvements, and system enhancements
- Hands-on role for leaders who prefer to own the work, not just review it
- Develop and mentor an accounting team with a clear focus on succession planning
- Platform role where your decisions will shape how the business scales and operates long term
- Based in the Twin Cities area — offering a high quality of life, strong professional community, and a cost of living meaningfully lower than most major metros
Key Responsibilities for the US Controller:
- Own U.S. accounting operations, including general ledger, financial close, and reporting
- Lead month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close with accuracy and timeliness
- Oversee accounting across two U.S. manufacturing facilities and corporate functions
- Direct AP, AR, general accounting, and cost accounting activities
- Partner with operations to improve manufacturing cost visibility
- Identify and resolve historical reconciliation issues, process gaps, and control weaknesses
Qualifications for the US Controller:
- Prior experience as a Controller or senior accounting leader
- Strong manufacturing and cost accounting background
- Proven ownership of full general ledger and close processes
- Multi-plant manufacturing accounting experience
