Job description

Based: Manila, North EDSA, Quezon City (on site, not WFH)

Hours: Monday to Friday, AU-aligned

Employer: Fig Advisory Philippines

Client: Australian HVAC and electrical contractor

Salary: PHP 40000 to 60000

THE ROLE

You will take control of the fleet and assets of an Australian HVAC, refrigeration and electrical maintenance contractor. They run more than 60 assets across New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland, from service vans to trailers, forklifts, scissor lifts and diggers, and they service major national retail contracts.

Every litre of fuel, every toll and every tool that leaves the warehouse costs money. Your job is to know where it goes, find where it leaks, and fix it. You start hands‑on. As the function grows, you will build and lead the team that runs it.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

• Run the fleet. Keep the register for every vehicle and item of plant accurate: registration, servicing, insurance, inspections and defects.
• Cut fuel costs. Monitor fuel use by vehicle and driver, spot the outliers and recommend where to save.
• Get on top of tolls. Compare toll spend against routes and jobs, and find cheaper ways to move technicians around.
• Know the true cost. Report operating cost per vehicle and per asset, and flag what should be repaired, replaced or retired.
• Audit and close out. Run fleet audits against the client's ISO‑aligned fleet manual, log non‑conformances and see them through to closed.
• Control property and equipment. Inspect and document damage, separate new, existing and used items, and track every item issued to technicians until it comes back.
• Report every week. One clear fleet and asset report: the numbers, the trend and the action you recommend.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

• Real fleet or asset experience. Three years or more in fleet management, logistics, asset control or inventory, ideally with a large field workforce.
• Strong with numbers. Excel pivot tables, lookups and cost analysis. You can find the story in a spreadsheet.
• Comfortable with tracking systems. GPS, telematics and fuel card data. Fleet management software is a plus.
• An audit mindset. You check, you document and you follow through. ISO exposure is useful.
• Ready to lead. You can see yourself running a team and holding people accountable for equipment and costs.
• Clear written and spoken English. You will work directly with an Australian director and their onshore mechanic.

Useful, not required: Simpro, Australian client experience, a trades or construction background.

BE CLEAR WITH YOURSELF BEFORE YOU APPLY

This is a hands‑on role with real money attached. You will be measured on savings found, audit findings closed and assets accounted for. If you want a desk and a script, this is not your role. If you want a function to own and a team to build, read on.

WHAT FIG PROVIDES

• Employed by Fig Advisory Philippines. Local taxes, statutory contributions, insurance, 13th month pay and leave, all handled properly.
• A desk in our central Manila office. You sit inside a company, with a team around you.
• A path to leadership. This role is built to grow into leading a fleet and asset control team.
• Real support behind you. An operations team on the floor, a delivery success manager on the account and a full HR function.
• A proper onboarding. Closely supported through your first two weeks.
• Leaders who show up. Our directors are on the Manila floor in person every quarter.

OUR VALUES ARE NOT NEGOTIABLE

Hunger. Discipline. Ownership. We hire for culture first and skills second, and we hold that line.

• Fig Advisory is Great Place to Work certified and ranked among the Best Workplaces in the Philippines 2026.
