Cost Analyst
If you’re looking for a cost accounting role where you’ll have direct visibility into manufacturing operations, work cross-functionally with production and engineering teams, and be part of a close-knit group with long employee tenure, this could be a great fit. Join a company that creates a wide variety of products while offering stability, collaboration, and strong benefits.
Salary: $60,000 to $70,000
Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
• Gain hands-on exposure to both manufacturing operations and accounting functions. • Work closely with production, engineering, procurement, and finance teams to influence business decisions. • Be part of a collaborative, close-knit team that enjoys working together and has strong employee longevity. • Gain visibility across multiple departments and contribute to strategic quoting and cost-target initiatives. • Enjoy a comprehensive benefits package and supportive team environment. • Work for a company that manufactures a diverse range of unique products.
Key Responsibilities for the Cost Analyst:
• Coordinate and oversee physical inventory processes. • Maintain standard costs and review standard versus actual cost variances. • Conduct production floor walkthroughs to investigate variances, reporting issues, and cost build-ups. • Analyze bills of materials (BOMs) and raw material costs. • Partner with production, engineering, and procurement teams to develop cost estimates and establish cost targets. • Support general accounting activities and financial reporting processes.
Qualifications for the Cost Analyst:
• Associate degree in Accounting or Finance. • Experience in cost accounting within a manufacturing environment preferred.
