• Assist technicians with advanced diagnostics, troubleshooting, and complex repairs while continuing to develop their technical knowledge.
• Coach employees through regular feedback, recognition, performance conversations, corrective action, and ongoing development.
• Identify and develop future Fleet leaders through mentoring, training, and career development opportunities.
• Partner closely with Operations leadership to prioritize repairs based on operational needs and minimize equipment downtime.
• Coordinate emergency repairs and respond quickly to operational needs.
• Ensure repair orders, preventive maintenance records, warranty documentation, inventory transactions, and shop records are completed accurately.
• Maintain accountability for shop cleanliness, organization, tools, equipment, and overall work environment.
• Partner with vendors, suppliers, and internal departments to support efficient maintenance operations.
• Assist with recruiting, interviewing, onboarding, and retaining high-performing maintenance employees.
• At Coastal, we win as a team. Fleet Maintenance Supervisors develop people, support fellow leaders, partner with Operations, and do whatever is necessary to keep our trucks and equipment operating safely, reliably, and efficiently.

What You'll Bring

• Five (5) or more years of heavy-duty diesel maintenance experience.
• Two (2) or more years of leadership or supervisory experience.
• Strong knowledge of diesel engines, hydraulics, electrical systems, heavy equipment, preventive maintenance programs, DOT regulations, and OSHA requirements.
• Demonstrated ability to coach, develop, and lead technical employees.
