Orbitform is seeking an experienced Controller to lead financial operations for our family of companies. Based primarily at our Jackson, MI headquarters, this role also provides financial oversight and support for two affiliated businesses: Wardcraft (Spring Arbor, MI) and C&B (New Hudson, MI). You'll own the accounting function end-to-end, from ERP administration and month-end close to budgeting, forecasting, and job costing, while leading a team and partnering directly with the President and site leaders across all three locations.
This is a great fit for a hands-on finance leader who enjoys variety, cross-entity collaboration, and building strong processes rather than just maintaining them.
Requirements
What You'll Do
Own setup, monitoring, and maintenance of the ERP system across departments and entities, ensuring accurate financial postings to the general ledger and financial statements
Develop and maintain strong processes and controls for accurate, timely transaction recording, with safeguards to detect and prevent errors and fraud
Manage financial reporting systems, dashboards, and scorecards across finance and operations
Lead monthly/accrual close and reconciliations; prepare monthly financial packages for company management and external stakeholders across Orbitform, Wardcraft, and C&B
Review and analyze job costing and standard costing systems; monitor variances and provide feedback for costing and pricing decisions
Oversee accounts receivable billing and collections, including credit policy and special terms
Analyze investment opportunities and operational efficiencies
Drive continuous improvement in accounting processes and business systems
Manage forecasting and predictive analytics processes
Prepare annual budgets, partnering with the President and department managers on detailed line-item review
Lead, develop, and manage the accounting team, including hiring, performance management, and fostering a culture that supports career growth and employee satisfaction
What We're Looking For
Bachelor's or Associate's degree in Accounting (candidates with equivalent experience Orbitform deems sufficient will also be considered)
Minimum 5 years of experience in plant/manufacturing accounting roles
CPA or MBA a plus
Working knowledge of ERP/accounting software (Encompix experience a plus)
Strong Excel skills, including Power Query and other reporting tools
Experience supporting accounting/finance across multiple business units or locations is a plus
Comfortable with occasional travel between Jackson, Spring Arbor, and New Hudson locations
Additional Details
Schedule: Monday–Friday, full-time salary; occasional evenings/weekends as business needs require
Travel: Primarily local, with periodic travel between Orbitform, Wardcraft, and C&B locations; some out-of-area/overnight travel may be required
Environment: Professional office setting with occasional time in the shop/plant environment
Team: This role directly manages the accounting department, including hiring and performance management
