Help Build the Operating System Behind a Growing Manufacturing Business

Most finance leadership roles focus on reporting what happened.

This one is about shaping what happens next.

Our client is entering an exciting phase of growth and is seeking a strategic finance leader who can help build the systems, accountability, and operational discipline that will support the company's future. If you're energized by the opportunity to influence decisions across Engineering, Manufacturing, Operations, and Leadership—and want a clear path toward a future CFO role—this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for.

This is not a traditional accounting position. It's a leadership role for someone who understands that financial performance is created through operational decisions and who wants to help build a stronger, smarter, and more scalable business.

Why This Opportunity Matters

As the organization continues to grow, the business needs more than accurate financial reporting—it needs a financial operating system.

This role was created to establish the structures, controls, and accountability mechanisms that allow leaders to make better decisions, manage costs effectively, and drive sustainable profitability. You'll work directly with ownership and department leaders to create visibility into performance, improve forecasting accuracy, strengthen financial accountability, and help guide strategic business decisions.

Your impact will be felt across the entire organization.

About Our Client

Our client is a well-established manufacturer serving customers across North America and international markets. Built on technical expertise, quality, and customer-focused solutions, the company has earned a strong reputation within its industry.

As the business continues to evolve, leadership is investing in the systems, processes, and operational discipline required to support long-term growth. This is an opportunity to join an organization at a pivotal stage and play a meaningful role in shaping its future direction.

What You'll Own

  • As Director of Finance & Business Operations, you'll serve as a key member of the leadership team, bringing financial insight and operational discipline to every area of the business.
  • You'll lead financial planning, forecasting, cash flow management, reporting, compliance, and banking relationships while ensuring the organization has the information needed to make confident business decisions.
  • You'll develop and strengthen job-costing systems, improve visibility into margins, and create reporting that helps leaders understand how projects, purchasing decisions, labour utilization, and operational performance impact profitability.
  • Working closely with department managers, you'll establish clear budget ownership, spending controls, forecasting processes, and performance measurement systems. You'll help leaders understand not only what they're spending, but why it matters and how it affects business outcomes.
  • A major focus of the role will be partnering with Engineering and Manufacturing to improve financial discipline through better cost visibility, engineering time tracking, manufacturing efficiency measurement, capacity planning, and project-level reporting.
  • You'll also lead one of the company's most important strategic initiatives—the selection and implementation of a next-generation ERP platform. From requirements gathering and vendor evaluation to implementation planning and reporting design, you'll play a central role in modernizing how the business operates.

What Success Looks Like

Within your first 12–24 months, you'll have helped create a business where:

  • Managers actively own and manage their budgets
  • Financial and operational performance is measurable and transparent
  • Engineering and manufacturing costs are visible and understood
  • Quote-to-actual reporting becomes part of everyday decision-making
  • Forecasts become reliable and actionable
  • ERP implementation is successfully underway
  • Cost accountability is driven by systems and processes rather than executive intervention

Requirements

What Makes You Successful

  • You'll thrive in this role if you're equally comfortable discussing strategy in the boardroom and rolling up your sleeves to improve reporting, controls, and business processes.
  • You bring strong management accounting expertise and understand how to connect financial performance to operational realities. You've worked in manufacturing, industrial equipment, engineered products, or project-based environments where cost visibility and operational discipline are critical to success.
  • You're skilled at building relationships across departments, influencing leaders, and challenging assumptions constructively. You know how to translate complex financial information into practical business insights that drive action.
  • You'll be especially successful if you've led ERP implementations, built job-costing systems, developed meaningful KPIs, or worked in configure-to-order, job-shop, or project-based manufacturing environments.
  • A CPA designation is considered an asset.
  • Most importantly, you're a business leader first and a finance professional second.

Benefits

What's In It For You

  • A clear pathway toward a future CFO opportunity
  • Direct exposure to ownership and executive-level decision-making
  • The ability to influence strategy across the entire organization
  • Leadership of a high-impact ERP transformation initiative
  • The opportunity to build systems, processes, and accountability structures that create lasting business value
  • Competitive compensation of up to $130000 plus performance bonus
  • The chance to leave a visible and measurable mark on a growing manufacturing company
