Fleet Managers manage the full fleet of primary and secondary equipment and continually focus on achieving market-base profitability through effective management of all fleet and maintenance activities within the assigned area, including cost control, management development, and high training and safety standards. Candidates that successfully complete this program must be willing to relocate within an assigned geographic area. During this program candidates will be required to travel as most of the curriculum will be on-the-job training (OJT) in the field with some classroom training. Successful candidates will develop incomparable knowledge of the Fleet Manager role. While some of the FOMT work is performed within an office atmosphere, fieldwork and frequent field assignments are the core foundation of the FOMT and operations positions. These field assignments will include exposure to the elements, weather, and other non-office-type conditions. When conducting field work and assignments one should possess the ability to ascend onto and descend from various pieces of collection and support equipment and ride accordingly for many consecutive hours.
