Fleet Manager Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I recently led the fleet procurement and maintenance side for a mid-sized operation, managing a budget of roughly $3 million and a team of four. We cut downtime by 12 percent over 12 months by tightening preventive maintenance and scheduling, and I’ve kept compliant with industry standards across every vehicle type in our roster. I’m not chasing hype, just dependable, steady improvements that keep deliveries moving. I’ve got a practical handle on vehicle selection, hire rates, and the day to day of client liaison. I’m comfortable shaping transport schedules, arranging collection and delivery windows, and keeping records up to date. I’m keen to understand [Company Name] needs and align our fleet plan with your service requirements, while staying mindful of cost and risk. One example lives in a recent project where a client required a same week deployment of 12 new vans and I coordinated procurement, maintenance handoffs, and driver briefings to meet the window. We tracked orders through the booking system and produced weekly operational statements for the client. The approach significantly improved on-time pickups and reduced escalations from customers. I’m happy to discuss how I can apply these experiences at [Company Name]. I’m available for a chat at your convenience and can provide specific examples from [Previous Company] if helpful. Kind regards, [Your Name]
