Cost Accounting Manager

About the role

At Urgo Medical, we believe innovation can transform lives. Our mission: to help patients heal faster and better, through cutting‑edge products and innovative digital services. Some wounds are severe, can become chronic, or may become infected, causing pain and isolation. By joining us, you will discover our mission, our foundation, our commitment to local industrialization, and the authentic energy of our teams. At Urgo Medical, we have many strengths: industrial, R&D, commercial... and all of them are essential. If you want to combine passion, impact, and innovation, this position is for you! The Cost Accounting Manager is a hands‑on manufacturing finance leader responsible for building, implementing, and managing the cost accounting and inventory accounting framework for URGO Medical North America's manufacturing operation. This role will establish the processes, controls, standard‑costing methodology, ERP disciplines, reporting routines, and governance required to support startup, validation, operational ramp‑up, and sustained growth. Serving as the primary accounting business partner to Manufacturing Operations, the Cost Accounting Manager will translate plant activity into accurate financial information and actionable business insight. The role will work in close partnership with FP&A, providing the cost, inventory, production, variance, capacity, and operational data required for budgeting, forecasting, long‑range planning, KPI development, scenario analysis, and management decision‑making. Success requires a builder mindset: the ability to create scalable processes where mature infrastructure does not yet exist, operate effectively through ambiguity, influence cross‑functional partners, and maintain disciplined financial controls while the site transitions from startup into routine commercial operations.
