The finance lead of a factory: owns product costing and standard costs, the plant budget and forecast, the monthly manufacturing close and variance story (material, labour, overhead), capital-project business cases and stewardship, inventory and fixed-asset controls and SOX compliance, and partners the plant manager on productivity, conversion cost and loss elimination. Success is judged on costs that are right and variances that are explained and acted on, a plant that hits its conversion-cost and savings plan, clean audits and controls, and a factory accounting team that runs the close without the manager in the room.
