Senior Cost Estimator | Cost Accountant | SAP Costing

This Senior Cost Estimator / Cost Accountant role at PAREKH, based in Navi Mumbai, blends traditional manufacturing cost accounting with hands-on SAP CO costing work, requiring genuine dual expertise across both disciplines. You will review product cost estimates directly, ensuring standard costs accurately reflect actual manufacturing economics before they flow into pricing and profitability decisions. Variance analysis work traces gaps between standard and actual costs back to their root causes, whether material price changes, labor efficiency, or overhead absorption issues. Inventory reconciliation and GL reconciliation round out the recurring accounting responsibilities, keeping the books accurate against physical and system realities.

Candidates need 3-8 years of cost accounting experience with genuine hands-on SAP CO skills spanning Product Costing, Standard Costing, and Variance Analysis, since this role explicitly requires SAP-based costing work rather than purely offline Excel analysis. Practical inventory reconciliation and GL reconciliation experience is essential for keeping manufacturing accounts accurate. Strong financial analysis capability is required to translate costing data into actionable management insight. A B.Com, M.Com, CMA, CA, or MBA Finance qualification is specifically required, reflecting the professional accounting credential PAREKH expects for this senior role.
