Broadview, IL | Hybrid (4 days onsite / 1 flex remote)
Hours: 7:00 AM – 3:30 PM (flexible)
Base: ~$105K + 10–15% Bonus

Why This Role

  • Strong total comp – base around $105K + 10–15% bonus

  • Hybrid flexibility – 4 days onsite with occasional remote flexibility

  • Early schedule – 7:00–3:30 allows for work/life balance

  • High visibility – direct exposure to plant leadership and parent company

  • Growth runway – path toward Controller as the business scales

  • Backed by a larger parent company with resources, while maintaining plant-level autonomy

The Opportunity

Our client is a recently acquired manufacturing business (~22 employees) operating as a standalone plant with the backing of a larger parent organization.

This is a high-impact, “own everything” role responsible for accounting, payroll, HR, and office operations . You’ll step into a key position stabilizing and modernizing processes during a period of transition while building structure for future growth.

What You’ll Own

Accounting & Finance

  • Full ownership of month-end close, financial statements, and reporting

  • Maintain GL, reconciliations, AP/AR, invoicing, and cash flow

  • Roll up financials to parent company and support consolidated reporting

  • Introduce and build cost accounting structure (manufacturing environment)

  • Budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis

  • Partner with external CPA on tax and audit

Payroll & HR

  • Process payroll and handle payroll tax compliance (941s, withholdings, reporting)

  • Administer benefits, PTO, and employee records

  • Handle onboarding/offboarding and employee relations

  • Act as point of contact for HR-related matters

Operations / Office Management

  • Oversee day-to-day office operations

  • Manage vendors and administrative functions

  • Support plant leadership with reporting and projects

  • Initial exposure to logistics/trucking coordination (will phase down over time)

What’s Happening / Why Open

  • Recently acquired business undergoing transition and modernization

  • Moving from basic QuickBooks to QuickBooks Enterprise (cloud)

  • Rebuilding chart of accounts and financial structure

  • Long-term ERP implementation planned

  • Hiring is a confidential upgrade to bring stronger structure and leadership

What They’re Looking For

  • 5+ years full-cycle accounting / bookkeeping experience

  • Manufacturing and/or cost accounting strongly preferred

  • Experience handling payroll + HR responsibilities

  • Comfortable wearing multiple hats in a small, high-visibility environment

  • Strong Excel skills (pivots, reconciliations, reporting)

  • Systems experience (QuickBooks or similar)

  • Self-starter who can build structure and operate in ambiguity

The Bottom Line

This is a true #1 seat at the plant level—own the numbers, build the processes, and grow into a Controller-level role with the backing of a larger organization.
