About The Position

We are building a new fleet maintenance services business focused on delivering flexible, high-quality maintenance and repair solutions to medium- and heavy-duty truck fleets. Our new mobile service combines Penske's technician quality and maintenance infrastructure to deliver the maintenance work fleet managers need — contract-lite and on their terms. Built for fleets running 5 to 100+ units that want dealer-level repair capabilities with a service experience that feels like a real partnership. The Market Manager, Fleet Mobile Maintenance serves as the leader of the Dallas market, responsible for operational performance, customer growth, team leadership, and profitability. This leader manages a high-performing team of technicians and support personnel, owns a multi-million-dollar P&L, and builds the customer relationships that drive retention and growth. The Market Manager role is equal parts operator and product builder — comfortable meeting with a fleet manager in the morning and sitting down with the Product Team in the afternoon. This person brings an entrepreneurial mindset with strong operational and entrepreneurial instincts. This is an in-person, Dallas-based, founding-team role. This initial leader role will help define what great operations look like at scale, help write the playbook, and shape a differentiated service experience for customers.
