About The Position

The Accountant, Aerospace & Defense is the dedicated finance partner for WCC’s two aerospace facilities, owning the full-cycle monthly close, accounts receivable, bank reconciliations, fixed assets, and intercompany accounting for both Oklahoma City and Cincinnati. The role reports directly to the Controller and works in close partnership with Aerospace & Defense Business Unit leadership. This is a hands-on accounting role, not a supervisory or management position. The successful candidate owns the close calendar, operates with a high degree of independence within defined controls, and serves as the primary finance contact for both sites. Both facilities operate on Microsoft Dynamics 365. Occasional travel to Cincinnati will be required.

• Support ongoing D365 stabilization at both facilities in partnership with the Controller and ERP implementation team

• Support BU management with ad hoc financial analysis, cost review, and reporting as directed by the Controller
• Participate in annual review preparation for OKC and Cincinnati entities

Benefits

• Direct visibility to site leadership and meaningful impact on business performance
• Work in a modern D365 environment across two facilities.
• Hands-on involvement in Cincinnati’s post-live stabilization — real ERP experience with a clean implementation already in place.

• Direct reporting line to the Controller with CFO visibility.
• Room to grow toward Senior Accountant designation as experience and credential develop.
