About the Role

Gordon Brothers Marketplace is seeking a Fleet Manager to join their trading operations team. This role serves as the technical backbone for fleet acquisition and disposition, evaluating equipment condition, modeling reconditioning costs, and preparing purchased fleets for profitable sale.

Responsibilities

  • Conduct on-site condition inspections of candidate fleets (tractors, trailers, trucks, and equipment).
  • Review maintenance histories, service records, and warranty status; flag chronic-repair units and deferred maintenance.
  • Run VIN and history checks; identify title, lien, and documentation issues before commitment.
  • Estimate true condition versus the seller’s claims and document findings for the procurement team.
  • Tier candidate fleets into A / B / C condition groups to guide recovery strategy.
  • Build reconditioning-cost models: what it costs to bring each unit to marketable condition.
  • Provide condition-adjusted pricing input to the Head of Procurement for negotiation.
  • Identify which units are best sold retail, sold wholesale, or parted out / scrapped.
  • Feed condition data into fleet appraisals and purchase-price decisions.
  • Maintain current knowledge of secondary-market pricing for used trucks, trailers, and equipment.
  • Advise on which specs and configurations hold resale value versus which are hard to move.
  • Own refurbishment triage: which units get reconditioned, to what standard, and at what cost.
  • Manage reconditioning vendors and shops - scope, quality, cost, and warranty enforcement.
  • Write credible condition reports and condition grades for listings.
  • Support staging, preparation, and sale-ready readiness of purchased inventory.
  • Ensure DOT / FMCSA compliance awareness in condition and saleability assessments.
  • Keep records audit-ready; manage title and documentation flow on purchased fleets.
  • Build and maintain relationships with fleets, dealers, shops, and remarketing channels.

Requirements

  • 5+ years managing a mid-size transportation fleet (trucks / trailers), with direct ownership of maintenance programs and asset lifecycle / replacement decisions.
  • Deep working knowledge of commercial truck and trailer equipment: specs, configurations, common failure points, and what drives used-market value.
  • Hands-on ability to assess condition: engine and hours, brakes, tires, frames, rust, and accident history.
  • Experience with preventive maintenance programs, repair-vs-replace analysis, and total-cost-of-ownership / cost-per-mile modeling.
  • Working knowledge of DOT / FMCSA compliance and inspection documentation.
  • Strong vendor and shop management with cost negotiation.
  • Ability to travel periodically for on-site fleet inspections.
  • Valid driver’s license (CDL preferred).
