Full Time

Description

Director, Finance & Accounting
Lead the Numbers. Influence the Business. Partner with Operations.

At ProAmpac, finance is not buried in spreadsheets and disconnected from the operation. Our finance leaders are embedded in the business, partnering directly with plant leadership to drive performance, profitability, accountability, and operational excellence.

We’re looking for a hands‑on manufacturing finance leader who understands both accounting discipline and operational partnership. This role oversees the accounting and financial functions for a manufacturing plant while serving as a strategic business partner to plant leadership and corporate finance.

If you thrive in fast‑paced manufacturing environments, enjoy walking the plant floor as much as analyzing financial results, and can translate numbers into action, we’d like to talk.

What You’ll Do
As Director, Finance & Accounting, you’ll lead the financial operations for a manufacturing facility while supporting operational decision‑making across the business.

You will:

Lead month‑end and year‑end close processes with accuracy and urgency

Oversee financial reporting, forecasting, budgeting, reconciliations, and variance analysis

Partner closely with plant leadership to improve profitability and operational performance

Analyze labor, material, overhead, inventory, and distribution costs to identify opportunities and risks

Support inventory accuracy and physical inventory processes while investigating variances and adjustments

Ensure compliance with GAAP, internal controls, and corporate financial standards

Translate financial results into meaningful business insights for operations and executive leadership

Lead and develop plant accounting talent, including direct management of an accountant

Serve as a trusted financial advisor to manufacturing leadership, helping drive strategic and operational decisions

This is a role for someone who wants visibility, influence, and the opportunity to impact the business beyond traditional accounting responsibilities.

Travel to sites as needed

This is a remote role with a preference for location in Central/Eastern time zones

What We’re Looking For
We’re seeking a finance and accounting leader with strong manufacturing experience and the ability to operate both strategically and tactically.

Ideal candidates will bring:

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field

Strong manufacturing finance and accounting experience

Experience supporting plant operations in a manufacturing environment

Background in financial reporting, forecasting, cost analysis, and variance analysis

ERP/MRP system experience, with exposure to systems like PeopleSoft a plus

Advanced Excel and financial systems capabilities

Strong communication and leadership skills with the ability to influence across operations and finance

A proactive, solutions‑oriented mindset with strong business acumen

Experience leading or mentoring accounting staff

Public accounting experience, particularly within a Big 4 environment, is valued

Why ProAmpac?
At ProAmpac, you’ll join a growing global packaging manufacturer where finance leaders play an active role in shaping business outcomes. This is an opportunity to:

Partner directly with operational leadership

Influence plant performance and profitability

Work in an environment where decisions move quickly

Be part of a company focused on growth, innovation, and continuous improvement

Build your career within a collaborative manufacturing organization that values accountability, ownership, and initiative

If you’re looking for a finance leadership role where you can combine accounting expertise with operational partnership and business impact, we encourage you to apply.
