Dependant on the successful candidate, this position will be based out of our office in Surrey, Red Deer, or Calgary. This is a corporate leadership role with a difference. You’ll provide the strategy, data analytics & KPI's, systems, standards and expertise that help our operating companies make better fleet decisions, improve readiness and control costs. You’ll lead a team of Regional Equipment Managers throughout BC and Alberta and work closely with General Managers, Trade Supervisors and operational teams across the organization. What You’ll Do: Set the Fleet Strategy * Establish corporate fleet standards, governance, reporting and performance expectations. * Build a clear enterprise-wide view of fleet cost, utilization, compliance, asset availability and lifecycle costs. * Support capital planning, replacement strategies and fleet standardization. * Identify opportunities to improve asset deployment and overall fleet performance. Turn Data Into Decisions * Lead fleet cost and performance analysis using Holman, financial data, maintenance history, utilization and telematics. * Develop and monitor meaningful KPIs including cost per unit, downtime, availability, utilization, PM compliance, reactive repairs and warranty recovery. * Use Power BI and other reporting tools to turn complex fleet data into practical, actionable insights. * Identify recurring failures, cost drivers, underutilized assets and opportunities for improvement.

Champion Compliance & Safety * Support compliance with National Safety Code (NSC), CVIP, WorkSafeBC/OHS, licensing, registration and insurance requirements. * Develop reporting and audit-support tools that give leadership confidence in fleet compliance. * Identify trends and gaps and work with local leadership on corrective action. * Help ensure our equipment is safe, compliant and ready when it matters most. Make Our Systems Work Smarter * Champion consistent and effective use of Holman (formerly ARI) across the organization. * Improve work order discipline, repair coding, maintenance authorization, invoice accuracy and data quality. * Use fleet data to monitor vendor cost, quality, turnaround time, warranty recovery and repeat repairs. * Ensure our fleet information is accurate enough to support real business decisions. Drive Continuous Improvement * Lead initiatives that improve equipment uptime, PM compliance, winter readiness, workflow discipline and lifecycle cost. * Create consistency where it adds value while allowing local teams the flexibility they need. * Build a proactive, data-driven fleet culture focused on readiness, compliance, cost and service reliability.
