About the Role
Are you a master technician who thrives on keeping heavy iron moving, organizing a clean shop, and leading a crew? We are looking for a Shop Foreman / Lead Fleet Mechanic dedicated to scheduling, mentoring, and training our fleet team.

- Modern Fleet & Gear: Work in a well-equipped, organized environment managing late-model medium/heavy trucks, loaders, and commercial landscaping equipment.
What You’ll Do: - Lead Shop Operations: Plan, schedule, and assign daily repair and maintenance tasks to our fleet team to minimize downtime.
- Diagnose & Repair: Perform advanced diagnostics, troubleshooting, and major/minor repairs on diesel engines, hydraulic systems, electrical components, and brake systems.
- Fleet Management: Oversee our preventive maintenance (PM) program for commercial trucks (Class 3-8), heavy yellow iron (loaders, skid steers), and specialized landscape equipment.
- Inventory & Vendor Control: Track parts inventory, order shop supplies efficiently, and manage relationships with external parts vendors.
- Safety First: Maintain a clean, OSHA-compliant shop environment and enforce safe tool and equipment usage.
What We’re Looking For: - Proven Leadership: 3+ years of experience as a Shop Foreman, Fleet Manager, Lead Mechanic, or Service Writer.
- Technical Mastery: Strong mechanical expertise across diesel engines, commercial truck chassis, complex hydraulics, and 12V/24V electrical systems.
- Tool Ownership: Possession of a comprehensive set of professional hand tools and diagnostic equipment.
- License Requirements: Valid driver’s license with a clean record (CDL Class A or B is a major plus, but not required).
- Storm Readiness: Ability and willingness to work flexible, extended hours during critical winter weather events to keep our snow fleet operational.
