  • Ensure consistent execution of SOPs, safety standards, compliance requirements, and customer service standards
  • Drive workforce planning, leadership development, and succession planning across the district
  • Partner closely with Revenue, Finance, Fleet, People, and Central Operations to resolve business constraints and improve performance
  • Lead cross-depot improvement initiatives and identify opportunities to increase efficiency and scalability
  • Communicate district results, risks, forecasts, and recommendations to regional leadership
  • Travel frequently across assigned locations

  • 3–5 years of experience leading multi-site operations and managing managers

  • Professional fluency in English; additional local language capability is a plus
  • Strong Excel or Google Sheets skills and experience working with business intelligence or operational management tools
  • A valid driver’s license
  • Availability to travel frequently and respond to critical business needs when required
