What are the responsibilities and job description for the Financial Analyst-Vehlo position at VEHLO PURCHASER LLC?
About Vehlo
We started Vehlo in 2019 with a simple goal: to be the industry’s favorite provider of repair shop technology.
Instead of going it alone, we brought together the industry’s disruptors–brands like Text2Drive, Shop Boss, and Rapid Recon– to improve the vehicle repair experience from the dealership service lane to the aftermarket repair shop floor. Together, we got to work growing our team, focusing on our customers, and connecting our products so that we can make the businesses that rely on our solutions even more successful. We’re continuing to bring even more industry leaders and best-in-class solutions together so that we can deliver on our promise day in, and day out.
Being a Veep comes with more than a comprehensive benefits package—our biggest benefit is opportunity: Opportunity to make an impact, opportunity for growth, and opportunity for recognition and rewards. This is not a mega-corporation where you wonder what people are doing all day - every Veep is moving the ball forward day in, day out for our customers or for each other.
