About Brighton & Hove Albion FC
We compete at the highest levels of football on a global stage while embracing our Sussex community spirit. At the heart of everything we do is our commitment to high performance, professional excellence, and making a positive impact.
Keep our club moving safely and efficiently
The Fleet Manager is the guardian of the club’s transport safety, performance, and operational excellence. In this pivotal role, you’ll ensure every 17 seater, 9 seater, and van in our fleet stays roadworthy, compliant, and optimised for cost and efficiency, while championing a culture where safety is second nature for both our professional drivers and our “grey fleet” colleagues using their own vehicles for club activities.
You’ll also play a key leadership role, providing direction and day to day support to our team of four part time drivers. Through clear communication, consistent coaching, and a forward thinking mindset, you’ll help shape a transport operation that is resilient, future ready, and always centred around people.

About you
We’re seeking a data driven problem solver who thrives on precision and takes pride in ensuring every MOT, licence check, and compliance requirement stays flawlessly on track. You’ll be the bridge between complex DVSA regulations and our frontline teams, translating technical rules into clear, practical guidance that empowers our drivers and staff.
Beyond day to day compliance, you’ll bring a strategic lens: anticipating how emerging trends, whether ULEZ changes, advances in EV infrastructure, or shifts in transport legislation. If you’re someone who sees around corners, lives in the detail, and loves turning data into confident decisions, we’d love for you to make an application.
