Lead plant finance at the flagship site of a Fortune 500 building-materials icon.
The Overview
Owens Corning — the Fortune 500 leader in insulation, roofing, and fiberglass composites — is hiring a Plant Finance Manager for a flagship Toledo operation, minutes from world headquarters. This is plant finance leadership with corporate visibility most plant roles never get.
The Role
You lead a three-person team covering standard costing, plant P&L, capital planning, and the strategic plan for a continuous-process glass operation. Furnace economics, energy cost modeling, and yield analysis make this one of the more intellectually interesting costing environments in manufacturing.
In Our Words
The phrase the hiring team kept using with us was 'general manager of the numbers.' This plant is a proving ground — its proximity to HQ means senior leaders walk the floor regularly, and strong Finance Managers here get pulled up fast. If you want visibility, this is the seat.
The Hiring Manager
The Division Finance Director is a 20-year OC veteran who started as a plant cost accountant. She's calm, structured, and big on development plans — she told us she's looking for someone who leads their team with standards and coaches operations without condescension.
Your Team
Three direct reports: two Cost Accountants (one senior, one early-career) and a Financial Analyst focused on capital tracking. A real leadership role, not a working-manager grind.
The Culture
OC's Toledo campus culture is famously strong — this is a company people stay at for decades, with a plant environment that takes safety and craft seriously.
Systems & ERP
SAP for the plant, OneStream for consolidation and planning. The analytics stack is modern and the company invests in finance tooling.
Travel & Remote
On-site role with roughly 15% travel for divisional plant reviews. Some schedule flexibility exists, but this is a leadership seat in a 24/7 operation — presence matters.
The Benefits
A named leadership-development program with executive sponsorship, tuition and certification funding, 20% bonus target, strong 401(k) with company contribution, and full relocation support.
The Location
Toledo is one of the Midwest's quiet wins: a revitalized downtown on the Maumee River, the Toledo Museum of Art, Lake Erie islands an hour away, and housing costs that let a $130k salary buy a genuinely great life.
