Description

Position at Autocar, LLC

Do you want to be a SENIOR Accountant on our finance team?

At Autocar, every truck we make is custom-engineered, and custom-made, specifically for that customer—no mass production here. Because we engineer trucks differently, we deliver trucks faster than the competition, and they WORK.

It takes a special kind of person to be a part of this business in transformation. We are privately owned and expect our team members to act with an owner mindset: Relentless about creating value for the end user. Dogged about finding efficiencies and eliminating waste. Standing arm and arm with the rest of the team until the job is done—and ready to do it again the next day, with a smile. It is not easy to do things differently in this industry. But we do it—because we are passionate about improving the lives of our customers.
