WHO WE ARE

We are partnering with Microjig, a profitable, family‑owned and operated precision woodworking tool company doing business globally. We invent and sell category‑defining products — the GRR‑RIPPER and MATCHFIT lines — through Amazon, specialty retail, and a growing wholesale and distributor channel.

We are scaling deliberately, with clear targets for revenue growth and profit, and we run on values that are honest, smart, and hardworking.

This is a build‑and‑run role for an operator who wants to scale — not a seat to keep warm.

WHO YOU ARE

• CPA (active) with 7+ years of progressive accounting and finance experience, including Controller or Assistant Controller responsibility.

• You come from a similar‑size, hands‑on company where you’ve owned the books, the close, and the forecast.

• Very data‑driven — you use numbers to drive decisions, not just describe them.

• A business partner first who translates numbers into decisions and recommendations.

• Evidence of a CFO trajectory: you’ve built or scaled a finance function, owned forecasting and strategic analysis, and partnered with leadership (and lenders or a board) on capital, growth, and profitability decisions.

• Someone who runs toward the fire — you like a challenge and do your best work when things are messy, not tidy.

• A steady financial hand who brings perspective when the numbers get loud and helps leadership focus on the real signal.

• Experienced in inventory‑heavy product companies (consumer products, manufacturing, distribution) and comfortable with landed cost, COGS, tariffs, and SKU‑level margin.

• Preferably experienced with multi‑channel revenue (Amazon/e‑commerce, wholesale, retail, distributor).

• Hands‑on with full‑cycle accounting and a track record cleaning up, implementing, or stabilizing an ERP/inventory system (QuickBooks Online + inventory platform a plus).

• A systems builder who creates SOPs, controls, and automation rather than relying on heroics.

• Thrives in a family‑owned, high‑accountability, values‑driven culture — honest, smart, hardworking, direct, and ready to own outcomes.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

This is a cleanup, restructure, and scale job — not a maintenance seat. The function has a stabilized base to build on, but the books need real work: backlog to clear, accounts to reconcile, GL integrity to restore, and a systems migration (QuickBooks Online + SOS Inventory) to finish.

Your job is to dig in, get it clean and reliable, rebuild the structure around it, and then take it to a level that scales with the business. The CEO defines the outcomes; you own the system that delivers them.

Clean Up & Restructure

• Diagnose the current state honestly, then triage — clear the close backlog, reconcile accounts, restore GL integrity, and drive clearing accounts to zero.

• Finish the migration to QuickBooks Online (Advanced) and SOS Inventory and rebuild the chart of accounts and processes around how the business actually runs.

• Restructure the function for scale — right work to the right seat (you, offshore execution, outside firm) with controls that hold up as volume grows.

Close, Controls & Accuracy

• Monthly close by the 5th–8th business day with zero CEO catch‑up.

• Clean, reconciled financials — P&L, Balance Sheet, Statement of Cash Flows, and credit‑card reconciliations.

• Strong internal controls, segregation of duties, approval workflows, and documented SOPs and checklists.

• Audit‑ready, on‑time handoffs to outside tax advisors; 100% sales‑tax compliance.

Cash & Forecasting

• Daily cash report and a rolling 13‑week cash forecast with disciplined AP payment timing.

• Weekly AR aging with strong collections discipline; weekly AP aging with zero past‑dues.

• Rolling 12‑month forecast and an annual budget the leadership team can run against.

Decision Support & Insight

• Weekly budget‑vs‑actual‑vs‑prior‑year‑vs‑forecast reporting with KPI commentary.

• Channel‑ and SKU‑level margin analysis that drives pricing, mix, and inventory decisions.

• Standardized monthly and quarterly reporting on margin, trends, and performance drivers — in plain business language.

Systems, Automation & Team

• Drive automation and cut manual work once the systems are clean (bank feed, A2X/e‑commerce summary, bill automation).

• Lead and develop offshore accounting execution; manage the outside accounting and tax firm; build the right team and development paths as the function scales.

HOW YOU WILL DO IT

First 90 Days

• Diagnose and triage: assess the books, surface the real gaps, and publish a prioritized cleanup‑and‑restructure plan with owners and dates.

• Get a reliable close running and stand up the daily cash report and 13‑week cash forecast as living tools.

• Take ownership of the QBO + SOS Inventory migration to a finish line.

By October 31, 2026

• Finance function fully operational, documented, accurate, and producing actionable insight.

• QBO + SOS Inventory transition complete; at least two automations live.

• Weekly KPI and margin reporting trusted and used in decisions across the business.
