Your Impact

– Drive digital, data-led operations using telematics, dashboards and predictive maintenance to improve uptime and reduce total cost of ownership.
– Own cost control and fuel performance, supplier SLAs, and commercial optimisation across maintenance and logistics spend.
– Embed world-class safety, risk and governance standards, ensuring audit-ready operations and full regulatory compliance (including NTSA, insurance and inspections).
– Lead sustainability and ESG initiatives, including emissions reduction, route optimisation and transition toward lower-emission technologies.
– Build and lead a multi-disciplinary team, strengthening leadership depth and delivering measurable improvements in service, safety and cost.
– Partner closely with Production, Finance and Maintenance to align fleet capability with business growth and continuity.

What Success Looks Like (12 Months)

– Fleet availability stabilised above 90%.
– 10%+ reduction in fuel cost per km.
– 90%+ on-time, in-full delivery performance.
– Preventive and predictive maintenance fully embedded.
– Real-time, data-driven performance dashboards in use.
– A high-performing, compliant, safety-driven fleet organisation in place.

The Leader We’re Looking For

– Bachelor’s degree in Logistics, Supply Chain, Mechanical Engineering or related field.
– 5–10+ years in fleet/logistics leadership within asset-heavy or multi-site environments; 3–5+ years managing teams and budgets.
– Track record running telematics, fuel management and maintenance systems at scale.
– Experience in food, agriculture, manufacturing or heavy distribution strongly preferred.
– Proven capability in digital transformation, cost optimisation, and change leadership.
– Strong working knowledge of Kenyan regulatory requirements (NTSA, insurance, audits, inspections).
– Commercial, data-driven, and systems-oriented; respected people leader with high standards for safety and performance.
– Valid driving licence.
