Job Description

Cost Accountant / Operations Analyst

Santa Clarita, CA
$110,000 – $135,000 base salary (DOE)

Why This Role Is Exciting

If you love understanding how products are built, where costs live, and how data drives better decisions, this role puts you at the center of operations. You'll partner closely with Manufacturing, Supply Chain, and Engineering to influence real outcomes — not just report on them. This is a hands-on, high-visibility role with ownership, impact, and room to grow.

What You'll Do

  • Be the go-to finance partner for operations, analyzing labor, overhead, material usage, scrap, absorption, and PPV

  • Turn production data into insight by forecasting volume, earned hours, production variances, and overhead costs

  • Own monthly inventory analysis including inventory reserves and warranty reserves

  • Lead the annual standard cost roll-up, working cross-functionally to ensure accuracy in the ERP system

  • Review and validate BOMs and routings before new products go live — your work directly impacts margins

  • Prepare and manage transfer pricing across multiple legal entities

  • Drive inventory revaluation and standard cost updates annually

  • Take the lead in internal and external operational audits, ensuring IFRS compliance

  • Run key parts of the month-end close including journal entries and account analysis

  • Coordinate physical inventory and cycle counts, investigate variances, and improve controls

What Makes You a Great Fit

Must-Have

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance

  • 2–3 years of cost accounting experience in a manufacturing or operations environment

  • Strong analytical mindset with the ability to connect numbers to real-world processes

  • Advanced Excel skills and experience working in an ERP environment (SAP strongly preferred)

  • Clear communicator who can partner with non-finance teams

Nice-to-Have (But Not Required)

  • MBA, CMA, or CFA

  • Experience in multi-entity or global operations

  • Exposure to IFRS, audits, and standard costing environments

What You'll Bring

  • Professional Strength: Cost accounting, inventory valuation, standard costing, operational analysis

  • Leadership Mindset: Ownership, curiosity, continuous improvement

  • Personal Edge: Self-starter, detail-driven, adaptable

  • People Skills: Collaborative, confident, and able to influence across teams

What You'll Get

  • Competitive compensation: $110K–$135K base

  • A role with real ownership and operational visibility

  • Direct exposure to leadership and cross-functional teams

  • A stable environment with opportunities to expand your scope and impact
