Job Description

Company and Job Description

This isn’t a “sit behind the desk” kind of finance role. As the Plant Controller, you’ll walk the factory floor, understand the operations, and use your insight to guide smarter business decisions. From costing and CAPEX to management accounting and reporting, you’ll be the financial bridge between global leadership and local operations.
It’s hands-on, fast-moving, and perfect for someone who wants their numbers to mean something tangible – not just balance on paper. If spreadsheets, steel, and strategy sound like your kind of mix – this one’s for you. A leading global manufacturer in the automotive and safety systems industry is looking for a Plant Controller to take ownership of the financial heartbeat of their Krugersdorp operations.
This is your chance to get closer to the action – where decisions are made in real time, and your numbers directly influence production, performance, and profit.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage costing, CAPEX, and management accounting functions for the plant
  • Analyse manufacturing performance and guide operational decision-making
  • Partner with plant leadership to support budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis
  • Drive cost efficiency and profitability through detailed financial insights
  • Prepare accurate management packs and performance reports for global submission
  • Ensure compliance with internal controls and group financial policies

  • 3–5 years’ experience in a manufacturing, FMCG, mining, or construction environment
  • Proven exposure to plant finance or operations-level reporting
  • Strong skills in costing, CAPEX control, and management accounting
  • Experience working with international entities or group reporting structures advantageous
  • Confident communicator who thrives in fast-paced, hands-on environments
