Manufacturing Cost Accounting Manager

Location: Vaughan, ON

Work Type: Permanent | Full-Time

Salary: $100,000 - $130,000 + up to 20% bonus + Comprehensive Benefits

Vacancy: New Position

Are you a manufacturing finance professional who enjoys turning operational data into meaningful business insights? Do you thrive in a fast-paced manufacturing environment where your expertise directly influences profitability and operational performance?

We're partnering with a well-established manufacturer to recruit a Manufacturing Cost Accounting Manager. This newly created position offers the opportunity to become a key finance business partner, working closely with Operations, Production, Supply Chain, and senior leadership to improve costing accuracy, operational efficiency, and financial performance.

Why This Role

This is much more than a traditional cost accounting position.

As the primary finance partner to the manufacturing operation, you'll play a critical role in ensuring accurate inventory valuation, product costing, financial reporting, and operational analysis. Your insights will help drive strategic decision-making while supporting continuous improvement initiatives across the business.

If you're looking for a role where you can make a measurable impact while growing your career with an expanding organization, this is an outstanding opportunity.

The Role: Cost Accounting Manager

Reporting to the Director of Finance and Corporate Controller, you'll lead the company's manufacturing finance and costing activities while partnering closely with operational leaders to improve business performance.

Key responsibilities include:

Supporting month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close activities related to inventory, manufacturing costs, and cost of goods sold
Preparing journal entries, account reconciliations, accruals, and financial reporting schedules
Monitoring and reconciling inventory, Work-in-Process (WIP), and manufacturing transactions
Maintaining standard costs, Bills of Materials (BOMs), routings, and costing data within the ERP system
Analyzing manufacturing variances, including material, labour, overhead, scrap, waste, and yield
Conducting inventory reconciliations, cycle counts, and physical inventory support
Partnering with Production, Operations, Purchasing, Warehouse, and Supply Chain teams to improve costing accuracy and operational performance
Developing profitability analyses, financial models, and scenario planning to support pricing, sourcing, and capital investment decisions
Supporting annual budgeting, forecasting, and long-range planning activities
Monitoring financial performance against budget while providing meaningful variance analysis
Identifying opportunities to improve financial controls, reporting processes, ERP effectiveness, and operational efficiency
Supporting internal and external audits while maintaining strong inventory and financial controls

What You'll Bring

Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Business, or a related discipline
Minimum 5 years of progressive manufacturing accounting experience
Strong background in cost accounting, inventory accounting, financial reporting, and manufacturing finance
Experience within a CPG environment is highly preferred
Thorough understanding of standard costing, inventory valuation, manufacturing variances, and cost of goods sold
Experience supporting budgeting, forecasting, financial analysis, and month-end close
Advanced ERP experience in a manufacturing environment (JD Edwards experience is considered an asset)
Advanced Microsoft Excel and financial modelling skills
CPA designation (or working toward CPA) is considered an asset
Excellent analytical, communication, and business partnering skills
Ability to collaborate effectively with both finance and operations teams

Benefits & Environment

This organization offers a competitive total rewards package along with the opportunity to join a collaborative and growing manufacturing business, including:

Competitive base salary
Annual bonus opportunity
Comprehensive health and dental benefits
Tuition reimbursement and professional development support
Opportunity to partner directly with senior leadership
Exposure to cross-functional operations and strategic decision-making
Stable, growing organization with strong long-term career opportunities
Collaborative and team-oriented culture focused on continuous improvement

If you're passionate about manufacturing finance and enjoy partnering with operations to improve business performance, we'd love to hear from you.

Since 1951, Drake International has connected people with meaningful work across Canada and globally. We are an equal opportunity employer committed to diversity, inclusion, and accessibility. Accommodations are available throughout the recruitment process. For accommodation requests, please contact your local Drake office.
