Fleet Manager
Miami Lakes / Hialeah, FL | Onsite
$90K–$100K + Bonus
Are you a hands-on fleet leader who came up through the mechanic side of the business?
LHH Recruitment Solutions is partnering with a growing South Florida organization to hire a Fleet Manager responsible for a fleet of nearly 100 trucks, distributed equipment, shop operations, and a team of mechanics.
This is a player-coach leadership role for someone who can manage the operation but still knows how to diagnose problems, guide complex repairs, and speak the language of experienced mechanics.
What You’ll Own
Lead fleet maintenance, repair, and shop operations
Manage and develop a team of 4–5 mechanics
Oversee preventive maintenance for trucks and equipment
Ensure DOT compliance , inspections, vehicle records, titles, registrations, and documentation
Manage parts inventory, vendors, tools, budgets, and purchasing
Recommend equipment replacement and capital purchases
Drive shop safety, productivity, and equipment training
What We’re Looking For
Strong mechanic background with gas and diesel engine experience
Approximately 5+ years of relevant fleet/mechanical experience preferred
Prior leadership or team-lead experience
Spanish proficiency required
Hands-on knowledge of fleet maintenance and equipment repair
ASE and/or diesel certifications strongly preferred
Experience with commercial trucks, heavy equipment, landscaping equipment, or similar fleets is highly relevant
⭐ The Candidate Who Will Stand Out
You're not simply a fleet administrator. You understand the equipment, can troubleshoot alongside your mechanics, and know how to build a disciplined preventive maintenance and shop operation around uptime, safety, compliance, and cost control.
If you're a Fleet Manager, Shop Manager, Lead Diesel Mechanic, Fleet Maintenance Manager, or experienced mechanic ready for broader leadership, we'd like to hear from you.
