The Fleet Manager runs the day-to-day operations of East Coast Facilities' national fleet of heavy equipment, trucks, vehicles, and small motor equipment across all branches. The role owns fleet readiness, maintenance coordination, DOT and multi-state regulatory compliance, telematics program operation, and direct leadership of mechanics and drivers. The Fleet Manager is accountable for the fleet being available, safe, compliant, and ready to perform — particularly during snow operations.

 Why This Role Exists

ECF operates a large, distributed fleet that is the primary execution asset for snow and landscape service delivery. Fleet downtime, compliance failures, or readiness gaps directly translate to missed service events, customer impact, and unsafe conditions. This role exists to centralize operational accountability for the fleet — replacing branch-by-branch ad-hoc fleet management with a coordinated, standards-based program that keeps every unit available, compliant, and operating at expected cost.

Winter Season Operations

All ECF employees, including the Fleet Manager, are expected to participate in snow operations as needed and at management's direction. This aligns with ECF's all-hands policy, which supplements dedicated snow operations roles with additional bandwidth during severe winter events. For the Fleet Manager specifically, this typically involves coordinating fleet readiness, managing emergency repair response, and supporting equipment availability throughout active events.

 Work ConditionsTravel

National travel required across all ECF service centers. Frequency varies with operational need — generally 25–40% travel, with higher concentration during snow season pre-readiness, equipment deployment cycles, and DOT/compliance reviews. Air travel will be regular.

Physical Demands

Extended periods of standing, walking, sitting, and driving. Must occasionally lift up to 60 lbs. Work may occur in shops, branch yards, outdoor environments, and variable weather conditions. Specific vision abilities required include close vision, distance vision, color vision, peripheral vision, depth perception, and the ability to adjust focus. Long working hours required for emergency response and winter weather storm management.

Schedule

Standard business hours with on-call availability during snow events and operational emergencies. Some evening and weekend work required during peak season.

Security

Employees must remain drug-free and pass security background checks meeting ECF underwriting standards. A valid driver's license in good standing is required throughout employment.
