Job description

Description: SHOP MANAGER – Lead a High-Performance Diesel Shop


Farmington, NY • Full-Time • $70,000–$80,000/year


Leonard’s Express is looking for a proven Diesel Shop Manager — someone who knows how to run a shop, lead technicians, and keep a fleet in top condition. If you’ve managed a diesel shop or served as a foreman and you’re ready to take ownership of a high-performing facility, this is your opportunity.


This isn’t a “sit behind a desk” role. You’ll be the go-to leader for your team, the bridge between maintenance and operations, and the person who sets the tone for safety, quality, and professionalism every day.


What You’ll Lead
  • Day-to-day shop operations for a busy Class A truck & trailer facility
  • A team of technicians who rely on you for guidance, training, and support
  • Communication between the shop, drivers, and operations to keep freight moving
  • Safety, quality, and productivity standards that protect our people and our brand
  • Scheduling, workflow planning, and performance metrics to maximize shop output
  • Parts inventory oversight, stock control, and purchasing decisions
  • A clean, organized, professional shop environment that reflects the quality of your team
Why This Role Matters

You’re not just running a shop — you’re shaping the culture, performance, and reputation of Leonard’s Express. Your leadership directly impacts:

  • Fleet readiness
  • Driver satisfaction
  • Customer service
  • Safety performance
  • Financial results

If you take pride in running a tight, efficient, professional shop, you’ll thrive here.


What We Offer
  • $70,000–$80,000/year, based on experience
  • Full benefits package: medical, dental, vision, EAP
  • 401K with company match
  • Paid time off
  • Company-paid life insurance
  • On-site gym + gym reimbursement
  • A stable, family-owned company with nationwide growth
  • A culture built on professionalism, teamwork, and respect
Requirements: What You Bring

We’re looking for a leader who has already proven themselves in a diesel shop environment:

  • Experience as a diesel shop manager or foreman (required)
  • Strong leadership presence — you set expectations and hold the team accountable
  • Ability to coach, train, and develop technicians
  • Advanced knowledge of Class A heavy diesel trucks and reefer trailers
  • Strong communication skills with drivers, techs, and operations
  • Scheduling, workflow planning, and productivity management experience
  • Proficiency with computers, including Microsoft Excel
  • Experience with TMT, TTP, or shop scheduling systems (preferred)
  • High school diploma or GED; technical schooling or ASE training is a plus
  • Valid driver’s license; CDL-A is a bonus
About Leonard’s Express

Leonard’s Express is a family-owned transportation company headquartered in Farmington, NY, with locations across the country. We’re known for our people-first culture, modern equipment, and commitment to doing things the right way. When you join Leonard’s, you join a team that values skill, leadership, and integrity.
