A significant component of this role involves supporting the implementation of Infor Cloud Suite Industrial (Syteline ERP), including developing new cost rates and business processes to transition from standard cost to actual cost environments. The accountant will also drive continuous improvement in accounting processes, costing methodologies, and reporting tools, including leveraging AI and process automation. Required qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field; 3+ years of cost accounting experience in a manufacturing environment; strong analytical and problem-solving skills with meticulous attention to detail; proficiency in ERP systems and advanced Excel; ability to communicate effectively across departments and present financial insights clearly; strong understanding of standard costing, variance analysis, and inventory accounting; and ability to produce high-quality analysis supporting data-driven business decisions.
