Robert Half is partnering with a successful aerospace and defense manufacturer seeking a high potential Assistant Controller to join their growing division. Reporting directly to the CFO, this position is part of long-term succession planning and offers outstanding career growth potential. Why This Role Stands Out: Financially strong organization with a deep backlog and excellent stability; Hands-on partnership with a seasoned Division CFO in a close-knit finance environment; Exposure to public company reporting, SOX compliance, and large ERP systems; High-visibility position with a mix of autonomy and mentorship. Additional Details: This role offers the best of both worlds—an entrepreneurial division environment combined with the resources of a larger corporate organization. It's an excellent opportunity for an accounting professional ready to expand their impact and grow alongside a respected financial leader. This excellent opportunity offers a full suite of benefits for the employee and family in addition to a competitive base salary and bonus plan.
