  • Serving as the cultural and operational role model of the depot.

  • Daily follow-up on KPIs and ensuring compliance with SOPs.

  • Monitor and improve vehicle availability, intervening directly to perform repairs when necessary.

  • Be responsible for warehouse cost management, including the use of consumables, the prevention of rework, and the implementation of disciplined cost control practices.

  • Oversee the preparation and presentation of RVs for sales appointments.
