Finance Operations Manager

Description:

We're seeking a Finance Operations Manager who is energized by the intersection of finance and operations—someone who sees financial management as a tool for driving business performance, not just recording it. You will partner closely with our operations, engineering, and supply chain teams to support decision-making through insightful analysis, reliable reporting, and forward-looking planning. Leading our accounting operations and directly supervising our Staff Accountant, you'll ensure we have the financial infrastructure and rigor to support Oribi's growth while maintaining the agility of a nimble, innovative manufacturer. The ideal candidate brings 3-5 years of hands-on finance experience, a strong operational approach, and the desire to build both technical expertise and leadership capabilities in a dynamic, purposeful environment.

What You Get To Do
 

• Lead the monthly financial close process and deliver accurate, timely reporting that keeps leadership informed and empowered to act quickly
• Partner directly with the General Manager and operations leadership to translate financial performance into actionable business insights
• Develop annual budgets and quarterly forecasts that align with strategic goals and support data-driven decision-making
• Build and track operational benchmarks and input metrics that drive continuous improvement and long-term value creation
• Mentor and develop the Staff Accountant, providing coaching, feedback, and opportunities for professional growth
• Transform financial data into clear, compelling narratives for both technical and non-technical audiences across the organization
• Collaborate with operations, engineering, supply chain, and quality teams to support new product launches, customer programs, and business development opportunities
• Continuously improve accounting processes and internal controls, finding opportunities for automation, standardization, and efficiency gains
• Serve as the financial liaison between Oribi and Re:Build Manufacturing corporate finance, ensuring seamless reporting and policy alignment
• Support business development efforts with cost modeling, pricing analysis, and financial feasibility assessments for advanced composite component opportunities
• Champion a culture of transparency, continuous improvement, and financial literacy across the organization
   

What you bring to the team – A Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience in Finance, Accounting, or Business Administration. You have 3-5 years of progressive experience in financial operations or management accounting. Your background includes exposure to manufacturing cost accounting, operational metrics, and cross-functional collaboration. You're equally comfortable building a forecast, closing the books, and walking the production floor to understand how the business really works.
