2, Description

Fleet managers are responsible for the vehicles owned by major corporations; government agencies; nonprofit organizations; or service organizations such as law enforcement agencies and educational institutions. They may be responsible for fleets ranging in size from several hundred to more than a thousand vehicles. Fleet managers are sometimes referred to as directors of fleet operations or administrators of corporate fleets.

Fleet managers often direct administrative staffs and report to transportation directors, vice presidents, or other administrative directors. Responsibilities generally include the development of fleet administration standards and vehicle operating policies; preparation of annual budgets and periodic reports on operating costs; purchase or lease of vehicles and equipment; and control over maintenance, repair, replacement, and disposal of vehicles.

In addition, managers may direct fleet-related risk management training, such as safety and accident prevention programs, and negotiate insurance matters. Some fleet managers create driver's manuals or newsletters to keep employees informed about their fleet programs.
