Why surf the wave with roadsurfer?

As Station Manager, you're the captain of the ship. You'll own the day-to-day operations of the Miami station - leading your team, keeping the fleet in top shape, and making sure every customer drives away as a happy roadsurfer. You'll also be someone who thrives on data: tracking quality scores, analyzing what's working, and making smart, cost-conscious decisions to keep the station performing at its best.

You'll manage both people and process across a lot of moving parts, so this role suits someone who is quick, agile, and has a startup environment mindset. You'll also work closely with Maintenance & Repair, Logistics, Operations, Finance, and HR to keep improving the customer experience across roadsurfer North America.

• Manage a team structure with both Core Team members (year-round) and a Flex Team (seasonal) brought on during peak season to support high-demand periods.
• Build staffing plans that balance full operational coverage with cost efficiency and service quality - you'll need to think like both a people leader and a budget owner.
• Source and recruit the right talent to build and maintain a high-performing station team.

Fleet Management

• Oversee the local vehicle fleet for rental: documentation, maintenance, cleanliness, and coordination with local service partners.
• Ensure every van leaving the lot meets roadsurfer's standards - because the fleet is the product.
