vehicles for customers who want the freedom of the open road without sacrificing quality or livability.

As Noovo continues to scale production, expand its product lineup, and mature its manufacturing
operations, the company is strengthening its cost accounting and ERP discipline to support better

environment is entrepreneurial, hands-on, and fast-moving — ideal for someone who enjoys working
close to the plant floor while helping build scalable financial and operational processes.

Position Summary
Noovo is seeking a hands-on Cost Accountant to support manufacturing cost accounting,
standard cost maintenance, inventory accuracy, production variance analysis, and ERP costing
discipline.

This is not a traditional corporate accounting or controller role. The right candidate will spend
meaningful time on-site with production, purchasing, inventory, and operations teams to understand
how vehicles are actually built, how materials and labor flow through the production process, and how
those activities should be reflected in the ERP and cost accounting records.
The Cost Accountant will serve as a bridge between the day-to-day production environment and the
financial cost calculations in the ERP system. This person will help ensure that bills of materials, labor
assumptions, standard costs, inventory movements, WIP, and finished goods costs accurately reflect
operational reality.

The ideal candidate is analytical, detail-oriented, operationally curious, and comfortable working in a
growing manufacturing business where processes are still evolving. They should be well-versed in
standard costing and cost accounting methodologies, while also being willing to walk the plant floor,
ask questions, validate data, and partner with production teams to improve accuracy.
