Fleet & Asset Manager

Dynamic SLR•Richardson, TX

18h•$120,000 - $130,000•Onsite

About The Position

Dynamic EcoHome is seeking a decisive, highly accountable Fleet & Asset Manager to build and own our fleet and asset-management function across Dallas-Fort Worth and Houston. This is not a maintenance-scheduling or administrative fleet position. We are looking for a function builder who can assess the current operation, identify weaknesses, establish clear standards, implement scalable systems, and take full ownership of results. The Fleet & Asset Manager will oversee approximately 60 company vehicles, along with tools, trailers, rental equipment, and other operational assets. This person will own fleet strategy, vehicle readiness, preventive maintenance, regulatory compliance, driver accountability, accident response, vendor performance, cost management, asset controls, and lifecycle planning. This is an individual-contributor role with no direct reports. However, the position carries significant functional authority and will work across Operations, Safety, Finance, HR, Warehousing, Installation, and Service. Success requires the ability to influence others, enforce standards, make sound decisions quickly, and bring structure to a fast-growing operation. The right person will not wait for a playbook. They will build it.
