Job Overview

About Rowland Emergency Vehicle Products Inc.

At Rowland Emergency Vehicle Products Inc., we build more than emergency vehicles—we help equip the people who protect our communities every day. From fire apparatus to specialty response vehicles, our work makes a difference, and we're looking for someone who wants to make a difference behind the scenes.

We're a growing manufacturing company that values teamwork, innovation, accountability, and people who enjoy solving problems and continuously improving the way things are done.

Ready for Your Next Career Move?

Are you the person everyone comes to when there's a problem in SAP?

Do you enjoy digging into the details, fixing issues, building reports, and making sure the numbers tell the right story?

Maybe you're a Senior Accountant, AP or AR Supervisor, Accounting Manager, or Assistant Controller who's ready to take the next step into a leadership role. If you're looking for an opportunity where you can expand your responsibilities, work closely with senior leadership, and have a real impact on a growing business, we'd love to meet you.

Position Summary

We're looking for a hands-on Financial Controller who enjoys being involved in both the day-to-day accounting operations and the bigger financial picture. This isn't a role where you'll simply review someone else's work—you'll be actively working in SAP Business One every day, performing General Ledger maintenance, GL coding changes, Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable adjustments, reconciliations, financial corrections, reporting, budgeting, forecasting, manufacturing costing, inventory analysis, and month-end and year-end activities.

You'll partner with our leadership team to improve financial reporting, streamline processes, support operational decision-making, and help shape the future of our finance function.

If you're looking for a position where you can grow your career while continuing to build your technical expertise, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for.
