National Fleet Logistics Manager

The National Fleet Logistics Manager is responsible for the full lifecycle performance of our vehicle fleet across all markets. That means procurement strategy, preventive maintenance, telematics, regulatory compliance, and cost management. This is a senior operations role with real accountability and direct visibility to executive leadership. We are looking for someone who has experience doing this at scale. If you have held a Regional or National Operations Manager role at Amazon, or come from a Senior Fleet Director background at a carrier or 3PL like FedEx Ground, XPO, UPS Supply Chain, or Ryder, we want to talk. You know how to run uptime, cut cost-per-mile, build a compliance culture, and develop people across multiple markets without needing a playbook handed to you.
