DeVivo Companies, part of DATTCO, Inc., is a family-owned transportation business operating across school bus, motorcoach, and related services. We are seeking a Director of Finance to partner directly with executive and operating leaders to drive disciplined decision-making, operational improvement, and long-term financial performance.

This is a high-impact role for a practical finance leader who wants to be close to the business—not just reporting results but shaping outcomes.

What You’ll Do

  • Deliver clear, timely financial reporting and insight across multiple operating units
  • Analyze monthly and quarterly results, identifying key drivers, risks, and opportunities
  • Build and maintain dashboards, KPIs, and performance scorecards for leadership
  • Provide financial modeling and recommendations for:
    • Fleet and capital investments
    • Pricing and contract decisions
    • Labor and operational structure changes
    • Facilities, technology, and system investments
  • Partner with operations leaders to improve margins, productivity, and cost discipline
  • Lead or support budgeting, forecasting, reforecasting, and long-range planning
  • Support capital allocation decisions with ROI, cash flow, and leverage awareness
  • Mentor finance staff and improve finance processes and analytical rigor

What We’re Looking For

  • 10+ years of progressive finance experience with leadership responsibility
  • Strong background in financial reporting, analysis, budgeting, forecasting, and ROI evaluation
  • Experience in asset-intensive or operationally complex businesses preferred
  • Ability to communicate financial insights clearly to non-financial leaders
  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, or related field (MBA/CPA preferred)

Why DeVivo

  • Direct exposure to executive leadership and meaningful decision-making
  • A finance role that influences how capital is deployed and how the business grows
  • Pragmatic, values-driven culture with long-tenured leadership
  • Opportunity to make a visible impact in a stable, growing organization
