Finance & Operations Manager Description 

Our client, a growing manufacturing and distribution company, is looking for a Finance & Operations Manager to join to their team in Farmingdale, NJ. Reporting directly to the Controller/VP of Finance, you will provide broad, hands-on support across accounting, finance, and business operations. You will assist with financial reporting, reconciliations, budgeting, compliance, and internal controls while developing a strong understanding of the company’s production, inventory, shipping, logistics, and billing processes.

The ideal candidate has a strong accounting and bookkeeping background, and is proactive, curious, and self-directed. This is a small-to- mid-sized company where everyone wears multiple hats - if you can take an assignment, determine what needs to be done, work with the right people, and get to the correct answer without needing constant direction, you’ll thrive here. This is a great opportunity to gain broad exposure to the business, become a trusted partner to senior leadership, and make a meaningful impact on efficiency, profitability, and day-to-day operations.
