ABOUT BLUE PEAK TENTS
Blue Peak Tents is a rapidly growing event infrastructure company based in Batavia, Illinois, serving the Chicagoland area and beyond. We provide tenting, flooring, restroom trailers, generators, and related event services for corporate events, weddings, festivals, and large-scale productions. Our fleet of 80+ vehicles, trailers, and specialized equipment is the backbone of our field operations.
THE ROLE
The Fleet Operations Manager owns the readiness, compliance, and lifecycle management of Blue Peak Tents' entire fleet. When the Field Operations team assigns an asset to an event, it must be road-ready, legally compliant, and fully equipped. This role is the single point of accountability for fleet operations, replacing a function previously distributed across multiple people.
