Fleet Manager — Amazon Delivery Service Partner (80+ Vehicle Fleet)
Confidential Employer — Amazon Delivery Service Partner | Sterling Heights, MI
Full-Time | $30.00 – $35.00 per hour | Paid Weekly
JOB DESCRIPTION
We are an independent, locally owned Amazon Delivery Service Partner (the "Company") based in Sterling Heights, Michigan, operating a fleet of more than 80 delivery vehicles — Ford Transits, Ram ProMasters, step vans, and Rivian electric delivery vans — that put 100+ drivers on the road across Macomb and Oakland County every day.
We are hiring a Fleet Manager to own the health, availability, and cost of that fleet. This is a hands-on leadership role, not a desk job. You will spend your day between the yard, the fleet software, the phone with our mobile mechanics and repair shops, and the dispatch office — making sure every route that needs a van has one that is safe, road-ready, and compliant.
The right person has managed a fleet of this size (or close to it) before, is comfortable turning a wrench on the small stuff, and knows how to keep vendors, repair orders, and vehicle status organized when 80+ vehicles are cycling in and out of service.
We are looking for someone who wants to grow with the Company and build the fleet program as we scale.

- Must be reachable by phone for road-call breakdowns during operating hours, with a rotation for after-hours escalation
KEY DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES
Fleet Availability & Daily Operations
- Own the daily vehicle count: know which vans are road-ready, grounded, in the shop, or due for service before dispatch builds the board each morning
- Manage vehicle groundings — pull unsafe vehicles from service, document the reason, and drive them back to road-ready status as quickly as possible
- Coordinate with dispatchers and operations managers on vehicle assignments, swaps, and rentals when the active fleet is short
- Manage rental vehicle activity (pickup, return, damage documentation, and billing review) with rental partners such as Enterprise and Kingbee
Breakdowns & Repairs
- Serve as first call for on-road breakdowns: triage the issue, determine next steps (roadside fix, tow, mobile mechanic, or shop), and get the driver and route covered
- Schedule and manage mobile mechanics and outside repair shops; hold vendors accountable for turnaround times, quality, and pricing
- Open, update, and close repair orders in fleet software with accurate notes, costs, parts, and completion dates
- Review repair estimates and invoices for accuracy and challenge charges that are excessive or unsupported
- Manage warranty, recall, and lease-return repair requirements and approvals
Hands-On Light Mechanical Work
- Perform light mechanical and cosmetic repairs in-house to keep vans on the road and reduce shop costs, including: replacing bulbs and lights, mirrors and mirror glass, backup cameras and camera wiring, wiper blades, fuses, batteries, and similar components
- Replace, rotate, and change tires; check and correct tire pressure; identify tires due for replacement
- Perform basic fluid checks and top-offs, and identify issues that need to go to a mechanic
- Maintain an organized shop area, tools, and parts inventory
Fleet Software, Compliance & Reporting
- Use fleet management and telematics software (e.g., Geotab, Netradyne, DVIC/inspection platforms, and fleet maintenance software) to track vehicle
